About the Author
Craig Highberger is a celebrated author and filmmaker whose work delves into the vibrant underbelly of New York City's avant-garde scene. With a keen eye for the eccentric and the extraordinary, Highberger captures the essence of countercultural icons who defied convention. His acclaimed biography, Superstar in a Housedress: The Life and Legend of Jackie Curtis, chronicles the tumultuous yet trailblazing journey of the legendary performer, poet, and Warhol superstar, blending meticulous research with vivid storytelling to illuminate her profound influence on underground theater and film. Drawing from personal connections to the Factory era, Highberger's narrative not only resurrects Curtis's flamboyant legacy but also explores themes of identity, artistry, and rebellion in mid-20th-century bohemia, offering readers an intimate portrait of a life lived unapologetically on the fringes.
