Superstar in a Housedress by Craig B. Highberger is a lively and unforgettable portrait of Jackie Curtis, one of Andy Warhol’s most dazzling and unconventional superstars. Based on the acclaimed documentary, this oral biography brings Curtis’s legacy to life through vivid recollections, rare photos, and excerpts from his poetry and plays. A fearless performer, poet, and pioneer of gender expression, Jackie lit up New York’s underground scene in the ’60s and ’70s with his eccentric flair and raw talent. This is a glittering tribute to a true original who inspired generations of artists and misfits.
