Waving the Rainbow Flag: Famous Gay & Bisexual Women
Josephine Baker
This iconic entertainer was known for her ability to seduce. What many people may not know is that she worked her mojo on men as well as women. While many of the biographical books and movies on Baker ignore her affairs with women Jean-Claude Baker’s 1993 book Josephine: The Hungry Heart details the true nature of her lifestyle. Although she married men, Claude Baker, Josephine’s play-son, records several affairs with both sexes. It’s rumored that Baker was even involved with Mexican painter Frida Kahlo.
