The work of Lyle Frisby is sometimes mixed up with that of his partner Pat Milo
because Mr. Milo continued to print and distribute Mr. Frisby's work after his death
at age 29. A few of today's attributions may be incorrect, but Lyle Frisby deserves
to be remembered. We start with Keith Stephan.
I wouldn't mind ending up with Keith. Can you get him on the bus, Jerry?
ReplyDeleteBel homme Stephan, il avait un physique magnifique !
ReplyDeleteL’un de ces nus masculins audacieux, de face, qui coûteraient cher à Frisby.
Absolute perfection. One of the all time greats in the genre.
ReplyDeleteHe died in 1974 at 47. Anyone know cause of death ?
ReplyDeleteMy search says that there is very little biographical info on Keith Stephan. One guy on Twitter (aka "X") says that Stephan died by suicide, and cites the book "Male Beauty" by Kenneth Krauss (published 2014) as his source. I have not read that book, so I can't confirm. If the suicide is true, that may explain why info on Stephan is sparse.
