Stormé DeLarverie outside Henrietta Hudson

This ephemera is from the Addresses Project which investigates lesbian and queer space and memory in New York City from the early 1900s to the present day through map-making, oral history interviews, ephemera and portraiture.  All ephemera were digitized and collected by Gwen Shockey. 

This photo features Stormé DeLarverie, a well-known butch lesbian who was present at the Stonewall Uprisings and bounced for lesbian bars like Cubbyhole and Henrietta to keep her community safe.
