Jerry Dreva

Jerry Dreva (1945–1997) was an artist, writer, performer, activist, and teacher from South Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

He was a founding member (together with Robert J. Lambert) of Les Petites Bon-Bons, a flamboyantly attired musical group that never played a single concert.

[2] As a mail artist he corresponded with individuals well known for their work in this field including On Kawara, Ray Johnson, Ben Vautier, Coum Transmissions, General Idea and members of Asco.

[4] During the 1980s Dreva became increasingly interested in Latin America, learning Spanish and spending considerable time in Guatemala, El Salvador and other Central and South American countries, where he studied revolutionary movements.

He was a supporter of the Shining Path in Peru, but adamant in insisting that gay rights be included in their agenda.
