Leee Black Childers is one of the key witnesses of 20th century popular culture. As an intimate of the Warhol Factory in the 1960s, he met and photographed the stars of the New York rock and gay underground, absorbing Warhol’s reportage aesthetic and creating a unique record of the Stonewall era. He witnessed the birth of glam rock in the clubs of London and New York, and in 1972 became a key player in David Bowie’s management company, accompanying Bowie all over the world. As a photographer, Leee captured the famous faces of 1970s music and nightlife - and he was also part of that scene, managing Johnny Thunders, watching the emergence of punk rock on both sides of the Atlantic. Leee Black Childers comes to London to talk about his amazing life and times, focusing on Andy Warhol’s only stage play PORK (1970), for which he was stage manager, and tracing its influence through music and gay culture since.
