Margo Howard-Howard
Margo Howard-Howard (1935-September 3, 1988) was a New York City drag queen who wrote memoirs titled I Was A White Slave In Harlem shortly before her death. With a written preface by Quentin Crisp, the memoirs describe Howard-Howard's privileged childhood in Singapore under her proper name of "Robert Hesse," her rape aboard a British Navy vessel escaping the Japanese at the start of World War II, and lifestyle as a drag queen prostitute in the 1950s and 1960s in Manhattan.
