In doing research in 20's and 30's American culture, fashion and icons for my trip to Dances of Vice I eventually found my way to the Wikipedia entry for Mae West.
Of course, I only knew her as the voluptuous bombshell, but I also learned that (amongst many other things) she was a prolific playwright, controversial comedienne, and a VERY outspoken defender of gay and transgender rights! O.O
Way ahead of her time.
I think she is becoming my new hero! :D
