LE ROI HUTTON Born in Houston, Texas in the 1950s le Roi Hutton aka Lee is an anomaly for his traditional and conservative Texas upbringing. Ostracized by the local community and discriminated for his lifestyle, Lee spent much of his troubled adolescence searching for an outlet to express himself creatively. This pursuit would eventually find him immersed in the culture of Manhattan in the mid 1970s as an ambitious 22 year old with classical dance training that took him on a world tour with the world renown Joffrey Ballet. His outstanding art series expressing his HIV/AIDS experience depicted in this video is available for special preview on loan at the World AIDS Museum.
