Mother and son lived for decades in a large Edwardian house on 11th Street near Alvarado, to which had been added a studio and an outdoor roof pool, the site of a zillion photo shoots and kitschy short movies involving near-naked Roman soldiers, wrestlers, sailors and cowboys. It was perhaps inevitable that in those repressive times Mizer would run afoul of the law, accused of being a pornographer and of being involved in prostitution. Sometimes, it seems, Mizer referred his models to other photographers, who sometimes had sex with them; there may have been more to it than that, for Mizer could be a shadowy man. In any event, Mizer was always at risk because so many of the young men who posed for him were also hustlers or had criminal records.
