Biography
Early life
Garner began her career in the 1970s in Los Angeles as a performance artist. She later served in the military and was stationed in Vietnam, where she was subjected to Agent Orange and contracted Leukemia as a result. In the 1980s, Pippa began her transition to a different gender as part of what she considered an "art project to create disorientation in my position in society, and sort of balk any possibility of ever falling into a stereotype again." As Philip Garner, she appeared on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, the Merv Griffin Show and other talk shows showcasing her satirical consumer product "inventions", and her art has appeared in Esquire, Rolling Stone, Arts & Architecture and Vogue, among other publications.
