Amazing Stories From an Incredible Life
Stories so wild, you couldn’t make them up.
Legendary artist and music producer Man Parrish shares the extraordinary stories of his life—from leaving home at just 13 and experiencing homelessness to becoming part of New York City’s legendary underground music scene.
Along the way, Man crossed paths and worked with artists including Boy George, Michael Jackson, and Gloria Gaynor, managed the Village People for six years, sold millions of records—and somehow never got paid for some of them.
These are remarkable stories of music, fame, survival, success, outrageous characters, and the unexpected turns that shaped his life.
Told with humor, incredible detail, and Man’s unmistakable visual storytelling, Man Parrish Stories takes you behind the scenes of a world most people never got to see.
Come along for the ride through 1980s New York City, underground culture, music, nightlife, and one truly incredible life.
