A very bright light went out on January 10, 2016…
DAVID BOWIE. Musician. Artist. Actor. Fashion Icon. Social Chameleon. Internet visionary. Talk about a renaissance man. Was there anything he couldn’t do? Bowie first came to earth in the incarnation as an average David in post WW2 Britain, and the Starman was talented from the start. By the time he was 22, he had a major hit with 1969’s “Space Oddity”. By 1972, Bowie (who changed his name because he didn’t want to be confused with Davey Jones of The Monkees) was a household name as “Ziggy Stardust”. Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, Bowie morphed into many other personas and remained at the forefront of pop, film, fashion, and artistic innovation.
