Becoming Austin Nation – From Crack to PhD: A Drag Queen’s Story


Austin Nation will share his autobiographical piece. Diagnosed with HIV/AIDS at the age of 26 this is the story of a person facing his own mortality until the release of the life extending drug AZT. At 40, Austin beat back his demons and is living his best life as a drag performer and a professor of nursing at Cal State Fullerton. It’s a story you do not want to miss.

“I was incredibly moved by the courage, perseverance, and hope expressed in Austin Nation’s journey from crack head to Ph.D. This story of transformation is inspirational, deeply moving, and sacred! Anyone who has ever struggled with addiction, identity, or sexuality must see this show. It leaves a lasting impression which you won’t soon forget! Austin Nation is a gift which makes my heart sing!” Craig Tyrl, Producer, Wayward Artist
