Drag: An Evening with Simon Doonan

By Brandon Bryant, Individual Gifts Officer

On Thursday evening, January 30, the Legacy Society of God’s Love We Deliver was delighted to host Simon Doonan, as he presented highlights from his book, Drag: The Complete Story. Simon Doonan, a writer, bon-vivant, window dresser, fashion commentator, has worked in fashion for over 35 years. The evening opened with remarks by Karen Pearl, President & CEO of God’s Love We Deliver, followed by the inimitable Joey Arias, multi-talented cabaret artist, drag queen, who introduced Simon Doonan. Joe’s Pub was filled with uproarious laughter as Simon took us through a journey of Drag: The Good, The Bad, & The Horrifying.
