Duncan Hannah
Poets Max Blagg and Glenn O'Brien, co-founders of the art/literary journal Bald Ego share intimations of mortality while encouraging their guest, sexy-girl painter Duncan Hannah to revert to his closet persona as a short story writer. Max Blagg was born in England and has lived in NYC since 1971. He is the author of several books, including the forthcoming collection of poems, What Love Sees in the Distance. Glenn, the author of Soapbox, a collection of essays, is also a poet, and comedian. He wrote the screenplay for, and appeared in, the film, Downtown 81, starring Jean-Michel Basquiat. He is also an avid golfer.
