Jack Fritscher
Mapplethorpe: A Pop Culture Memoir
New York: Hastings House, 1994.
First printing.
The intense career of Mapplethorpe, cut short by HIV at the age of 42, is described against the background of his underworld friendships, by a long-term collaborater and lover.
Fritscher evokes the outlaw nature of the 70s gay scene in Manhattan and San Francisco, and evaluates Mapplethorpe's emerging significance in the art scene.
