Biography

Joseph Hawkins received his Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of Southern California, with a dissertation on homosexuality in Japan. He took the photographs in this collection at the 1996 Tagata Honen Festival in Kamaki, Japan. This Shinto festival, held annually on March 15, is a fertility rite and a celebration of life, and its key focus is a large phallus carved from a sacred Japanese cypress tree.

From the guide to the Joseph Hawkins photographs of the 1996 Tagata Honen festival, 1993-1996, (bulk 1996), (ONE National Gay and Lesbian Archives.)
