    The Leee Black Childers interview 
    (c) Lee Sobel, 2011 - Previously unpublished

    In 2011, I was working on a book about New York City in the 1970's that I never completed and interviewed Leee Black Childers (July 24, 1945-April 6, 2014) who had worked with Warhol, Bowie, Jayne County and was the manager of the notorious band Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers and later Levi and the Rockats. He was an amazing photographer too. This interview has never been published and, sadly, Leee, who was a delight when I interviewed him, passed away three years after this interview in 2014.

    Being a teenager in New York City in the 70's, I was lucky enough to see the amazing Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers play Max's Kansas City numerous times.

This interview will give you a little insight into what it was like to manage this band, as well as all the other fascinating aspects of Leee's career.
