  • Bourbon, Ray (1892?-1971) by Claude J
    Bourbon, Ray (1892?-1971) by Claude J. Summers Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Legendary drag performer and recording artist Ray (or Rae) Bourbon appeared in silent movies, vaudeville acts, Broadway plays, and, from the 1930s through the 1960s, performed across the United States in a gay nightclub circuit. Often arrested by the police for his "indecent" performances and for dressing in drag, Bourbon was ultimately convicted of conspiracy to commit murder and died in prison. Bourbon deliberately obscured his origins, sometimes even claiming that he was "the last of the Hapsburg Bourbons," but he was probably born Hal Waddell in Texarkana, Texas sometime around 1892. In the early 1920s, Bourbon worked as a stuntman in Hollywood and appeared in several silent films, sometimes in drag. He then teamed up with Bert Sherry in a successful vaudeville act, "Bourbon and Sherry," in which Sherry played the straight man to Bourbon's flamboyant drag persona. He soon attracted the attention of Mae West, who in 1927 cast him in two of her plays--Sex and Pleasure Man. Both were raided by police who were attempting to "clean up" Broadway. Bourbon later appeared as an extra in West's movies and in supporting roles in productions of her plays. In the early 1930s, Bourbon recorded the first of his many risqué records. He also began to appear in the "pansy clubs" that sprouted in Hollywood in an attempt to capitalize on the "pansy craze" in New York during the late 1920s. Bourbon created and starred in a drag revue called "Boys Will Be Girls." After the police shut down the Los Angeles establishments, he moved his show to San Francisco.

  • Transgender, and Queer History Is a Publication of the National Park Foundation and the National Park Service
    Published online 2016 www.nps.gov/subjects/tellingallamericansstories/lgbtqthemestudy.htm LGBTQ America: A Theme Study of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer History is a publication of the National Park Foundation and the National Park Service. We are very grateful for the generous support of the Gill Foundation, which has made this publication possible. The views and conclusions contained in the essays are those of the authors and should not be interpreted as representing the opinions or policies of the U.S. Government.

No part of this publication may be reprinted or reproduced without permission from the publishers. Links (URLs) to websites referenced in this document were accurate at the time of publication. INCLUSIVE STORIES Although scholars of LGBTQ history have generally been inclusive of women, the working classes, and gender-nonconforming people, the narrative that is found in mainstream media and that many people think of when they think of LGBTQ history is overwhelmingly white, middle-class, male, and has been focused on urban communities. While these are important histories, they do not present a full picture of LGBTQ history. To include other communities, we asked the authors to look beyond the more well-known stories. Inclusion within each chapter, however, isn’t enough to describe the geographic, economic, legal, and other cultural factors that shaped these diverse histories. Therefore, we commissioned chapters providing broad historical contexts for two spirit, transgender, Latino/a, African American Pacific Islander, and bisexual communities.

  • Karyl Norman
    Share Report Abuse Next Blog» Create Blog Sign In AAnn OOppeenn BBooookk Sunday, December 4, 2011 Followers King of Queens: Karyl Norman The Creole Fashion Plate: In the annals of vaudeville, one name stands alone: Karyl Norman. He, along with Francis Renault, and Julian Eltinge, were the reigning kings, or queens, if you will, of female impersonation. But while much has been written about Eltinge and other interpreters of drag, such as Bert Savoy, Tom Martelle, Jean Malin, Earl Lind and Ray Bourbon, little is known about Karyl Norman, who by all accounts was one of the most fascinating and glamorous of vaudeville's gender-bending vamps, the original voguin' vixen and one of the premier princesses of the so-called "Pansy Craze." Karyl Norman paved the way for countless female impersonators who came after him. He also wrote many of his own songs, which puts him in a different league than Eltinge and his peers who always used songs written by others. Karyl's legacy endures primarily due to his sheet music which shows up constantly on eBay, although many dealers are not aware that this stylish siren was in reality a man. Most accounts of Karyl Norman, I've found, are just plain wrong. His name is often misspelled, both his stage name and his birth name. I've seen mentions of him as "Norman Carroll," "Carl Newman," "Norman Thomas," and "Carole Norman." Writers have claimed his real name was George Paduzzi. The Cambridge Guide to Theatre says it was "Poduzzi." One account I read said that he was born in Australia; another that he was African-American and lived in Harlem.

  • Stuart Timmons' City of West Hollywood Lgbtq History Mobile Tour
    STUART TIMMONS’ CITY OF WEST HOLLYWOOD LGBTQ HISTORY MOBILE TOUR (2017 Edition) Introduction Welcome to Stuart Timmons’ City of West Hollywood LGBTQ History Mobile Tour. This tour was originally researched and written by our beloved late author/historian Stuart Timmons, and it is in his memory and honor we present it. In 2007 Stuart began developing a trio of walking tours of LGBTQ History in Los Angeles. He used his years of extensive research, interviews with living witnesses of history, and his experience as an activist and participant in the community history to create the tours. Stuart served briefly as the executive director and on the board of directors of the ONE National Gay and Lesbian Archives, wrote a biography about the gay activist and radical pioneer Harry Hay called “The Trouble with Harry Hay” and co- authored, with Lillian Faderman, the quintessential Los Angeles queer history tome “Gay L.A.: A History of Sexual Outlaws, Power Politics, and Lipstick Lesbians.” Stuart had completed tour documents about Downtown Los Angeles and Silver Lake, but was unable to finish his tour about The City of West Hollywood due to a severe and debilitating stroke in January of 2008. In 2015, a small team - led by Jason Jenn and with superlative administrative assistance by WeHo Arts Coordinator, Mike Che - helped Stuart to complete the tour, thanks to a grant from The City of West Hollywood’s One City One Pride LGBTQ Arts Festival for the 30th Anniversary of cityhood called “WeHo@30”. The original walking tour has evolved over the years to accommodate new information from various changes to “The Creative City” and in order to accommodate the Tour’s transformation into a performance art happening involving over a dozen colorfully costumed performance artists delivering the historical material on location.

  • The ASLE Online Bibliography, 2000–2010
    The Association for the Study of Literature and Environment The ASLE Online Bibliography, 2000–2010 Editor's Note “Have you read . ?” “You should read. .” “Can anyone recommend good articles, essays, poems, or books about . ?” Sharing of bibliographical references must rank among the most frequent activities in any academic community. Informal exchanges of bibliographic information occur at every conference and on every e-mail list. On the listserv of the Association for the Study of Literature and Environment (ASLE), from its inception to today, long-established netiquette has called for folks who have posted requests for bibliographical references to compile the suggestions and post them back to the group. Listserv archives were (and are) available and searchable, but finding bibliographic information in those archives is not a trivial task. And in the early 1990s, academic bibliographies such as the MLA International Bibliography did not index many sources of interest to the emerging interdisciplinary field of ecocriticism. Accordingly, from 1990 to 1997, ASLE produced annual or biennial annotated bibliographies. Working with volunteer bibliographers, the editors of the ASLE Bibliography compiled entries in MLA format, accompanied by one-sentence abstracts, paragraph-length summaries, and keywords from a custom list of terms designed to reflect the work and concerns of ecocriticism. Those invaluable bibliographies were printed in an 8.5 x 11” format and sold to members to cover printing costs. Creating an annual, printed bibliography with few resources and a volunteer staff amounted to a Herculean task, and the fruits of that labor could be distributed only once every year or two. So, when the job of editor opened up in the late 90s, I began exploring with ASLE’s Executive Council the possibility of creating an online bibliography.
