Filmmaker Kate Novack explores the life and career of fashion journalist André Leon Talley — from his childhood in the segregated South to his iconic, barrier-breaking work at Women’s Wear Daily, W and Vogue.
Join the WHBPAC every Thursday afternoon for a series of films celebrating the legacies of the late great stars of the screen. After each screening, discuss the mark each star left on cinema, television, or culture with fellow attendees in our lounge.
André Leon Talley was an American fashion journalist, stylist, creative director, and editor-at-large of Vogue magazine. He was the magazine’s fashion news director from 1983 to 1987, its first African-American male creative director from 1988 to 1995, and then its editor-at-large from 1998 to 2013.
