Susanne Bartsch
is New York City's Queen of the Night, a guardian angel of metamorphosis and acceptance.
Since the inception of The Love Ball in the '80s, Susanne has raised over 2.5 million dollars for HIV/AIDS research.
Her extravagant events have attracted a beautiful, strange, and outlandishly dressed crowd for over four decades, celebrating inclusion, radical self-expression, and togetherness.
