San Francisco Sentinel Classics November 23, 1989 So Much to Be Thankful For By Doris Fish Didn’t people always say, “You have so much to be thankful for!”, when you complained about how scarce your life, or more importantly, your lifestyle was? It always seemed so silly to be grateful just to be…
San Francisco Sentinel December 14, 1989 The Doris Decade By Doris Fish The eighties started for me in 1979 when I met Miss X. With Tippi we formed the Sluts A-Go-Go, did a show and went to Australia for our South Pacific nightclub tour (really one nightclub and one dive). And it’s been…
San Francisco Sentinel December 7, 1989 Not Another Martini, Darling! Eight is My Limit By Doris Fish December is barely here, and my mailbox is bursting with smart soirée invitations. I’m flattered to be considered a good party risk. Of course, it has been years since I earned the “Worst Person at the…
San Francisco Sentinel November 30, 1989 Fake Fur Rules! Ok?

One has to be very careful; I can’t even wear my day-glo Doris Fish t-shirt to Rhythm & Motion aerobic classes without hearing a less-than-enthusiastic, “Doesn’t she…
San Francisco Sentinel November 2, 1989 City Beat Oh, You Stunning Queens! By Doris Fish You were all stunning! I mean it, Saturday night on Castro was as lovely as ever. And thanks to the Police persons for being there. I saw no trouble during my twenty-minute promenade and hope that none of…
San Francisco Sentinel October 26, 1989 City Beat Putting on the Frock By Doris Fish Everyone was shopping last week. They were three-deep at Cliff’s candle counter; the bottled water was all gone at Cala and the flashlights and batteries were the hot items at Pay N’ Pak. I wish I could say…
San Francisco Sentinel December 21, 1989 “Fish and Dips” By Doris Fish Lacking photographic evidence, you’ll just have to believe what I tell you! I was traffic-stoppingly beautiful last week, making one of my rare public appearances at the lovely home of the still unmarried Gwynn Waters (well she’s famous to me!). I…
