Quentin Crisp: An Englishman in New York
|
|
The colorful and defiantly out, English homosexual Quentin Crisp (1908-1999) became a gay icon in the 1970s after publishing his memoir "The Naked Civil Servant." In 1981, he relocated to New York where he performed a one-man show, published books and articles and reviews for magazines and newspapers. Crisp is the subject of Sting's 1987 song "Englishman in New York" which appears on the album "Nothing Like the Sun."
