Glaser, Nina, 1955-, creatorAbstract:
Photographs depict members of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (Sister Boom Boom, Sister Vicious Power Hungry Bitch, Sister
Mary Media and others) in various humorous poses, chiefly of a sexually and religiously provocative nature. Taken at unidentified
locations, some of them undeveloped or abandoned outdoor areas around San Francisco Bay. Greeting cards feature reproductions
