Timeline

1946

Honey Lee Cottrell (January 16, 1946 – September 21, 2015) was a lesbian photographer and filmmaker who lived most of her life in San Francisco, California.

Her papers are part of the Human Sexuality Collection at Cornell University Library.

1968

Cottrell was raised in Michigan, moving to San Francisco in 1968.

She learned photography in her twenties and in her thirties, and went to school at San Francisco State University, earning a B.A. in film studies.

She funded her early artistic work by serving as a waiter on cruise ships, earning a certificate as a merchant seaman.

1970

She began exhibiting her photography in the mid-1970s in San Francisco, becoming well known for her photography of women.

She collaborated with other lesbian photographers, including Tee Corinne.

1976

In the 1976 documentary film We Are Ourselves, Cottrell and Tee Corinne describe their relationship to filmmaker Ann Hershey.

1978

Cottrell collaborated with Joani Blank on the 1978 path-breaking book "I Am My Lover," published by Blank's Down There Press.

Blank edited the book, pairing Cottrell's photographs of individual women with these women's written reflections on masturbation and on learning to give themselves pleasure.

1979

Cottrell's first film, Sweet Dreams (1979) included Pat Califia and was produced by the National Sex Forum.

Sweet Dreams is described by documentary film critics as part of a tradition of the "feminist autobiographic art of masturbation demonstration".

The film also is described as ground-breaking in its combination of second-wave cultural feminism and lesbian erotica.

1980

Through the 1980s and 1990s, Cottrell worked as contributing photographer for On Our Backs, a lesbian sex magazine edited by Susie Bright.

Her work became influential in representations of lesbian sex and feminist lesbian portraiture.

Along with Corinne and later, Susie Bright and other lovers and artistic collaborators, Cottrell strategically positioned sexually explicit photography as part of lesbian culture and as populist sex education.

Her lesbian s/m images in particular, in works such as the SAMOIS book Coming to Power, were considered controversially pornographic by feminist critics.

1985

She worked for Fatale Media as a consultant, a film company known for getting the first lesbian porn film into the Frameline Film Festival in 1985.

Cottrell was a co-founder of the San Francisco Lesbian and Gay History Project, working with many other artists, writers, historians and cultural critics.
