November in Chorlton-cum-Hardy Manchester , England) war ein britischer Exzentriker , Autor und Entertainer. Crisp wuchs in Sutton, einem Stadtteil Londons , auf. Schon in der Kindheit, gepr¤gt von einer strengen Erziehung, lernte Crisp, sich gegen die B¼rgerlichkeit seiner Umgebung zur Wehr zu setzen. Wegen seiner Vorliebe f¼r Make-Up und gef¤rbte Haare und wegen seines weiblichen Auftretens war eine normal-b¼rgerliche Karriere unm¶glich. So versuchte er sich in Berufen der Kunst. Er wurde Illustrator f¼r B¼cher. Doch auch hier wurde er nicht akzeptiert. Er versuchte sein Gl¼ck als freischaffender Autor , hatte aber damit wiederum nur wenig Erfolg. Er schlug sich ¼ber zwanzig Jahre mit Gelegenheitsjobs durch, die als „typisch homosexuell “ galten - Aushilfe im Theaterfundus, Praktikant in Friseurgesch¤ften, Aushilfst¤tigkeiten in Modeboutiquen usw. Beschimpfungen aus der Bev¶lkerung waren f¼r Crisp ebenso an der Tagesordnung wie „rger mit Arbeitgebern oder der Polizei. Quentin Crisp gilt als der erste Homosexuelle Englands, der sich ¶ffentlich outete. In den 1960er Jahren wurde man ¶ffentlich auf ihn aufmerksam. Er schrieb daraufhin seine Biographie, die 1968 ver¶ffentlicht wurde. Crisp war zu diesem Zeitpunkt schon 59 Jahre alt. Das Buch fand keinen groŸen Absatz, bis es verfilmt wurde. Als Fernsehfilm mit

I have always lived my life in the profession of being. A pinch of notoriety will do. I am not famous; I am notorious and if I am rich it is because I have taken my wages in people. (on domesticity) After four years, the dust doesn't get any worse. I am one of the stately homos of old England. When asked, "Should I tell my mother I'm gay?" I answer, "Never tell your mother anything. If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style. A lifetime of listening to disco music is a high price to pay for one's sexual preference.

    http://www.glbtq.com/arts/crisp_q_art.html
    
    Extractions: page: Actor, writer, performance artist, and wit Quentin Crisp described himself as "one of the stately homos of England" and "not merely a self-confessed homosexual, but a self-evident one." He became a celebrity in England as a result of his extraordinary autobiography, The Naked Civil Servant (1968), and a celebrity in the United States when its dramatization as a television movie starring John Hurt was broadcast in New York in 1976. Crisp was born Denis Charles Pratt on December 25, 1908, the youngest of four children of a solicitor and a nursery governess. He was educated at a minor public school in Staffordshire and then took art courses at Battersea Polytechnic and High Whitcomb. Sponsor Message. As a young man in London he supported himself in a variety of ways, including designing book covers, freelancing as a commercial artist, and occasionally working as a prostitute and a tap-dancing teacher. During World War II, exempt from military service because of his open homosexuality, he was employed by a government-funded art school as a nude model. Hence, he became a "naked civil servant," as he entitled his autobiography. Because his homosexuality was so self-evident, as epitomized by his effeminacy, hennaed hair, long fingernails, and make-up, Crisp not only became a London "character" in the 1930s and 1940s, but frequently aroused the anger of total strangers, who sometimes attacked him physically, beating and spitting upon him, simply for being who he was.
