Question (RELATED TO THE HBO SHOW GIRLS) ❓ Where is Hannah’s family originally from?
In the episode where Flo is in hospital, Adam makes it there by motorcycle, and Hannah is on a train. This supposes Upstate or New England somewhere within reach no more than 4 hours by any mode of transport from the City.
What’s more, her uncle got done for insider trading, safe to assume he commuted to NYC to work in finance.
I think Hannah’s mother is from whatever state that is (as the single aunt lived there with Flo), got a professor job in Michigan, maybe even went to undergrad there and met Tad and just stayed and settled, raising Hannah there.
Theories?
EDIT: If we’re going further, Horvath is a Hungarian Jewish surname I believe, don’t know Loreen’s maiden name however
