A Park Avenue resident with a summer home in East Hampton, Levy was acquainted with many of the preeminent artists of the New York School who also spent significant time in East Hampton. He was a member of the Camino Gallery, one of the "10th Street Galleries" which operated out of the East Village from 1956 to 1963. These galleries were run co-operatively by the artists, with very little or no full-time staff. In particular, many important female abstract expressionists leveraged the benefits of the cooperative, during a time when women and minorities were marginalize and often precluded from reaching the upper echelons of the art ecosystem.
