#art #history: sometimes it's nice to draw someone just because her mug is so bloody marvellous...but debbie harry (born #otd in 1945) is much more than a pretty face.
although she made her debut in miami, she's more strongly identified with the big apple. her adoptive parents were from new jersey, you see, so she grew up there & escaped to NYC in 1965. [short thread - &, yes, i DID have to do multiple variations!]

@kathimmel@mstdn.socialyou all know her musical history & the contributions she made to pop (arguably including the first female rap as well as the shimmery risk of a disco single that proved to be a massive crossover hit), but did you know that she's not afraid of the f-word? to wit, she wonders, 'how can one be a woman & not be a feminist?'
