We're thrilled to host the Dandy Warhols' Courtney Taylor (aka C. Allbritton Taylor) and Camp Freddy's Donovan Leitch as they present their new graphic novel One Model Nation\, illustrated by Jim Rugg.
A native of the Pacific Northwest\, C. Allbritton Taylor has lived in New York\, Amsterdam\, Los Angeles\, London and has made countless trips to Berlin for more than a decade while collecting information and writing One Model Nation. Now a resident of Washington State\, C. Allbritton says of his first published full-length work\, "\;I did my best to present a clear story while having to protect the people who wanted to remain hidden. I had to change names (and occasionally places) to do this while remaining true to my original intention\: to pay homage to the great artists who played their parts in that time of unsung greatness."\;
Actor\, musician\, producer\, rock historian\, Donovan Leitch co-conceived One Model Nation with his collaborator C. Allbritton Taylor. Donovan was the lead singer for the '90s andro-glam NY band Nancy Boy and now fronts the all-star jam band Camp Freddy. As an actor\, he has appeared in many late night cable cult classics and he played the lead role in Hedwig and the Angry Inch in both New York and L.A. productions. He has produced several documentaries and is now developing rock based musicals. As an avid music historian\, Donovan constantly seeks to uncover the deeper truths of the mysterious band One Model Nation.
