Larry Buttwinick drag party | A digitized 8mm film of people in drag at a house party, circa 1965-1975, from the Larry Buttwinick papers (2006-44).. The people are having fun, getting dressed, modeling, and celebrating. The film is from the collection of Larry Buttwinick (1924-2004), a gay man who attended drag parties starting in the 1950s.
Larry Buttwinick (1924-2004) was a gay Jewish man and an original member of the Imperial Court of San Francisco. His life intersected with prominent LGBTQ figures such as Jose Sarría (drag star, political activist, and founder of the Imperial Court) and Henry Diekow (a drag artist also known as the Baroness von Dieckoff). Buttwinick was born in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles in 1924 and served in World War II before moving to San Francisco in 1954, where he remained until his death in 2004. He was also a member of the Society for Individual Rights (SIR), an early gay and lesbian rights organization, and one of the founders of the Lavender Seniors of the East Bay. |
