"Since moving to New York City from Atlanta in 1990, she's accumulated some life experiences that most people only read about. Far from her previous life, where she was a teen model and taught young girls how to walk down runways in the '80s in a charm school, she graduated to a scene that wasn't even imaginable when she was on her high school track and tennis teams."
"I was a member of the House of Domination' with Kitty Boots, Chi Chi Valenti and Johnny Dynell that was my college, she states. I got my bachelor's degree in the streets, my master's at [the legendary West Village club] Jackie 60, my PHD with The Big Art Group, and now, I'm working on my doctorate, she jokes. I learned everything on my own which sometimes was dangerous."
Heather Litteer moved from Atlanta to New York City in 1990 and became immersed in the downtown nightlife and performance scenes. She had earlier been a teen model and taught runway walking in a charm school during the 1980s. Litteer left community college and Hunter College and pursued club life and performance instead. She joined the House of Domination and Jackie 60, worked as a dancer across prominent 1990s clubs including The Limelight, Palladium, Danceteria, the Tunnel, and Billy's Topless, and performed with experimental groups. Her club work ranged from cage dancing to sustained performance and self-education in the arts.
