Pop star Boy George and photographer Marion Ettlinger on this archive edition of Fresh Air. In 1982, Boy George and his band Culture Club first hit the charts with "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" and that was the beginning of his rise to gender-bending pop icon. In 1995 he wrote his new autobiography Take It Like a Man: The Autobiography of Boy George. On November 13th he opens on Broadway with the show Taboo, a musical about his rise to fame. Though he is not playing himself, he's playing Leigh Bowery, gay designer and denizen of London nightclubs who died of AIDS in 1994. Taboo opened first in London. Photographer Marion Ettlinger is a leading portrait photographer specializing in writers. Her photos end up on many book jackets. Over the years her subjects have been Truman Capote, Tom Wolfe, William Styron, Raymond Carver, Joyce Carol Oates, Sue Miller, Sarah Vowell and many more.
