GAY ICONS:
Artists, Filmmakers, Photographers, Writers & Places
Jack Fritscher’s writing on gay icons spans filmmakers, authors, artists, photographers, and the landmark places and events that defined LGBTQ cultural history. As a firsthand witness and participant in gay San Francisco from the 1960s onward, Fritscher brings unique personal authority to his profiles of figures including Robert Mapplethorpe, Tennessee Williams, George Dureau, Peter Berlin, and Larry Townsend, as well as to his documentation of legendary venues and events like the Folsom Street Fair, the Catacombs, and the Mineshaft. Together these portraits form an irreplaceable eyewitness record of gay culture at its most vital and transformative.
