Before he was Darcelle XV, Portland, Oregon's most celebrated female impersonator, he was Walter Cole, a boy from the small suburb of Linnton. Walter/Darcelle tells the story of his life from his depression era childhood, his years in the service during the Korean Conflict, his time as a husband and father and his coming out in the sixties to become a mentor and strong example of strength and courage for gay and straight people everywhere. Your life is what you make of it and no one does it better than Darcelle.
