GREER LANKTON by NAN GOLDIN

Greer Lankton, (1958-1996), who was born male and had a sex-change operation in 1979 at the age of 21, is the subject of many fine pictures by Goldin. She became well known for dolls and sculptural installations, including a life-sized doll of famed fashion editor and costume curator Diana Vreeland (1903-1989). Greer suffered from alcohol and drug addiction and anorexia. There is a section of pictures of her in 'The Other Side', probably the most effective part of this book. GREER LANKTON  MENU
