Photograph: "Miss P" (1997)
Description
Photograph of Miss P by Loc Robertson. Photograph was taken at the lake behind Parliament house, Orlando.
Paul Michael Wegman or known as Miss P was born and raised in Rochester, New York and moved to Florida in 1960's, where he graduated magna cum laude with a B.A. in Theatre at the University of Central Florida. Although known as an entertainer for Parliament House, Wegman was also a performer at the Orlando Shakespeare Theater and adjunt professor at Valencia Community College. Over the years Paul received many awards and acknowledgements from local civic, charitable, and theatrical organizations. Wegman passed away on August 24, 2004 due to complication resulting from AIDS.
Loc Robertson and Leigh Shannon had an idea to spotlight some local Florida Drag talent, with this selected year allowing selected entertainers a fun photoshoot of their choice where Robertson took a full body and then head shot.
