I see you have a picture of Belmont Rocks Chicago posted.I was there on that beach where I met the Blueboy model that went by the name Claus in 1979.He worked at Carols Speakeasy on Wells Street.He gave me advice and I listened.I never got to thank him and I moved away and never seen him again.

Wow, that's amazing! I spent a year compiling portraits of blueboy models... I actually remember finding pictures of a mode named Claus. I included his face in my piece, "pages of a blueboy magazine." 100 faces I compiled in honor of the lost generation of gay men who died of AIDS. Thanks for sharing your story!

Post cards have arrived for my first solo show! Opening reception tomorrow night 6-8pm at ClampArt, New York, NYC.
