Who is Sandie Crisp, also known as Goddess Bunny?
Sandie Crisp, known as Goddess Bunny, was a disabled, intersex icon of Los Angeles' underground art, punk, and performance scene. She became a muse to generations of artists and a fixture of the West Hollywood avant-garde, celebrated for presenting herself with complete glamour despite having a body many people weren't used to seeing.

Was Goddess Bunny transgender?
Sandie is often described as transgender, but she was intersex.

What was Sandie Crisp's disability?
Sandie spoke openly about her disability throughout her life. In her own words: "I've been a miracle since birth. I used to be paralyzed from the neck down. I wasn't supposed to live three days past my birth." Sandie was born with birth defects, survived childhood polio and multiple botched surgeries, and later lived through the HIV/AIDS epidemic. But it wasn’t illness or trauma that defined her—it was audacity. She was radiant, chaotic, and charismatic, a woman who made life a performance.

What was Sandie Crisp like?
Sandie was known for her heart, courage, and humor as much as her glamour. Her crude, charming spirit drew people to her and surrounded her with love. In her own words: "Us women who have a mental capacity of caring are going to take over and men are going to shut the f*ck up and learn that compassion that is better than a bully."

How did filmmaker Matthew Patrick meet Sandie Crisp?
First photographed in 1991 by longtime friend and collaborator Matthew Kuhara Patrick on the closing night of Boogieman—Reza Abdo’s urgent, experimental play about AIDS—Sandie was already a commanding presence. She had to be carried onto the set to perform, her body frail, her voice anything but.

The pair would go on to share a 30-year friendship marked by art, laughter, and a fierce devotion to one another. “She introduced me as her big brother,” Patrick recalls, “and I looked at her as my little sister. It was that way.”
