Retired Bay Area “letter carrier” (postal worker) Linda Lee is a different kind of presence on the Bay Area’s gay nightlife scene. In her seventies, her penchant for festive kitty t-shirts, embellishments on her orthopedic cane and colorful sneakers make her a kind of fun grandmother/auntie character at the many drag events, comedy nights, plays, concerts, bar events and other nightlife events she travels to on BART from her rented apartment in Hayward. Arts & entertainment and fashion reporter Tony Bravo interviews Linda Lee, who was featured in a recent Style section cover story.
Produced by Peter Hartlaub. Music is "Midnight Special" by E's Jammy Jams.
