A New Gallery Show for 'The Drag Queens of New York'

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Oct 28, 2025

30 years ago, The Drag Queens of New York: An Illustrated Field Guide was one of the first books from a major publisher to document the history of the city's drag scene. Howl! Arts has mounted a 30th anniversary exhibition of the book, curated in part by the book's author Julian Fleisher. Fleisher and celebrated playwright and drag queen Charles Busch talk about the history and new exhibition, and listeners share their connections to drag in NYC.
