Carl van Vechten Day


Carl van Vechten (1880-1964) was an American writer and photographer best known for chronicling the Harlem Renaissance and being the executor of Gertrude Stein's literary estate.  Married to women most of his life, he engaged in frequent and numerous homosexual affairs.  We start today's series with a shot of Geoffrey Holder, an actor, dancer, musician, and artist.
