Soon to be a major motion picture starring Kristen Stewart (as JT) and Laura Dern. The JT LeRoy scandal is a story of our times. In January 2006, the New York Times unmasked Savannah Knoop as the face of the mysterious author JT LeRoy. A media frenzy ensued as JT’s fans, mentors, and readers came to terms with the fact that the gay-male-ex-truck-stop-prostitute-turned literary-wunderkind was really a girl from San Francisco, whose sister-in-law wrote the books. Girl Boy Girl is the story of how Savannah Knoop led this bizarre double life for six years, trading a precarious existence as a college dropout for a life in which she was embraced by celebrities and artists—Carrie Fisher, Courtney Love, Mary Ellen Mark, Winona Ryder, Asia Argento, Sharon Olds, Gus Van Sant, Mike Pitt, Calvin Klein, and Shirley Manson, to name a few—and traveled the world. Telling her side of the story for the first time, Savannah reveals how being perceived as a boy gave her a sense of confidence and entitlement she never had before. Her love affair with Asia Argento is particularly wrenching, as they embark on an intimate relationship that causes more alienation than closeness. As Savannah and Laura struggle over control of the JT character, Savannah realizes the limits of the game - - and inadvertently finds herself through the adventure of being someone else.

The Savannah College of Art and Design: Restoration of an Architectural Heritage

By: Connie Capozzola Pinkerton,Maureen Burke Ph.D.,Historic Preservation Department of the Savannah College of Arts and Design

In 1979, a small art college with 71 students opened its doors in a renovated 19th-century building in the urban heart of colonial Savannah, Georgia. One of the most historic cities on the eastern seaboard, Savannah is noted for its architectural treasures, urban forest and verdant squares, and for the unique 1733 city plan designed by General Oglethorpe. The campus fabric of the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) grew from the Romanesque revival Savannah Volunteer Guards Armory, designed by Boston architect William Gibbons Preston in 1892, to comprise some 60 rehabilitated historic structures situated within four historic districts. Currently, more than 6,200 students pursue their dreams in this wonderful setting.

Voices of Savannah

Selections from the Oral History Collection of the Savannah Jewish Archives

By: Savannah Jewish Archives

The Savannah Jewish Archives (SJA), housed in the Georgia Historical Society and funded by the Savannah Jewish Federation, was established in 1994 to preserve and make available the history of the Jewish community of Savannah, Georgia. As part of an ongoing effort to make their holdings accessible to the public, the SJA, on its tenth anniversary, proudly presents Voices of Savannah: Selections from the Oral History Collection of the Savannah Jewish Archives. This new offering from the SJA is a supplement to The Jewish Community of Savannah (Arcadia Press, 2002), which utilized the Archives' extensive photograph collection to trace the history of Savannah's Jewish community. Voices of Savannah offers previously unseen photographs from the collections of the SJA while also drawing narrative text from more than one hundred oral history interviews collected from and by local Jewish residents, pulling together their own stories in their own words to create a unique picture of Savannah in days gone by. - Back cover.
