So, when Peter asked me to be the club’s artist-in-residence, it was a dream. Which is why, one afternoon, I happened to be backstage – looking for the accountant to get paid – when I walked into a room to find the legendary American comedian Lenny Bruce. He was alone, kneeling on the floor, cutting out newspaper pictures and sticking them on a mirror. Even now, I’m still not sure why that afternoon he was creating a collage on that mirror. He asked if I’d noticed how newspaper pin-ups always wore white heels.
