Kate Bornstein and the Voice cover take a star turn at Dixon Place Tuesday night, we were invited to play a small part in Kate Bornstein's book party at the experimental theater Dixon Place, to celebrate the release of her memoir, A Queer and Pleasant Danger.

Earlier that day, our cover story about Kate had popped up on the website, and the print version of this week's Voice had also started showing up around town.

Kate is not only a well-known performance artist, she's also a familiar face among the many commenters at this blog, and we've enjoyed learning about her experiences as a Scientologist on the Apollo with L. Ron Hubbard back in the early 1970s.
