“Diane Barker had a room in the Beat Hotel on the Left Bank. She wanted a photograph of her, sitting on her bed in one of her latest creations. This is the moment that I discovered that she walked around with bare feet… Several years later I remember a short article in an American paper that Diane Barker, the barefoot jazz drummer, had had a crash on her motorcycle!! … Next to her is Angus MacLise but all that is showing is his hand and arm… I didn’t stay long or the conversation might have turned around to who and what am I doing, which might have circulated among their friends. ”
