Iconic House Mother Shannon Garçon

I recently caught up with Ballroom Icon Shannon Garçon, house mother and founder of the International House of Comme de Garçon.

He and I talked about how the ballroom community helped him overcome homelessness, the vogue icons he met in the 1980's, how he started his own house, and we even talked about Pose on FX and gay presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg.

It was a wide-ranging and inspiring conversation.
