While Tennessee pushes bonkers legislation that seeks to ban drag shows, Craig Seligman's biography of Doris Fish is a breath of fresh, sparkly air. In Who Does That Bitch Think She Is?: Doris Fish and the Rise of Drag, the lauded book critic and editor deep-dives into Fish's life as an anarchic post-Stonewall-era creator, drag queen, and sex worker in Australia. He'll be joined by Silvana Nova, Seligman’s husband, activist, performance artist, and former drag queen, for this conversation on Fish's driving force in drag during one of queer history's most dynamic eras.
