That Man: Peter Berlin

With his trademark pageboy haircut and oh-so-tight leather pants, Peter Berlin was the gay poster boy for the sexually liberated 70s—but who was the man behind the famous image? Jim Tushinski’s That Man: Peter Berlin reveals him to be a talented artist, photographer, and filmmaker whose greatest creation was the carefully-constructed, sexually unattainable persona that he presented to the world. Featuring interviews with a wide range of fans, friends, and admirers including filmmakers John Waters and Wakefield Poole, author Armistead Maupin, and fellow porn star Jack Wrangler, That Man: Peter Berlin is an entertaining look at the life of the man who was arguably the original influencer.
