Kathy Eastland Papers

Identifier

MS-01174

Abstract

The Kathy Eastland Papers (1972-2003) document Kathy Eastland's experiences working in Nevada brothels. Materials include ephemera and memorabilia collected by Eastland from various brothels in Nevada such as the Mustang Ranch, the Moonlite BunnyRanch, and Old Bridge Ranch. Included in the collection are brothel menus and photographs of Eastland and other sex workers socializing in the brothels. The collection also contains notes, research, and drafts of Eastland's manuscript Hell on Heels which describe her experience working in the brothel industry. Also included are prototypes of a game created by Eastland called "Brothelopoly" and some campaign materials about Jessi Winchester, a former brothel worker who ran for public office in Nevada. There is a small amount of materials about Joe Conforte, former owner of the Mustang Ranch, and some personal effects of Eastland including a motorcycle jacket and storage trunk.
