{"id":15,"name":"Michelle Coomber","url":"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/@MimiVonTussle","description":"A child of the 50s, remembers the 60s, partied in the 70s and was hung-over in the 80s. Used to sit in David Bowie\u2019s garden, Biba\u2019s shop window and leaned on the jukebox in SEX, stood up occasionally. Raised in Fulham by very cool parents and a stone\u2019s throw from The Nashville, The Greyhound, Hammersmith Odeon and Kings Road. Still mourns the Speakeasy and Wardour Street\u2019s Marquee plus other deceased London music venues and greasy spoons. Worked for Mary Quant in the 70s and enjoyed the social scene that went with it. Was surrounded by punk squats in the mid-70s and hung out at Beggar\u2019s Banquet basement studio watching bands drink and rehearse while avoiding electrocution. Went to Lindsay Kemp\u2019s mime classes with punk goddess Jordan, we were both rubbish. Grew up with Paul Cook and got hit over the head by Sid\u2019s guitar at the Speakeasy. Saw many iconic gigs back in the day including New York Dolls at Biba\u2019s Rainbow Room and Ziggy Stardust\u2019s farewell show at Hammersmith. Lived in NY & LA in \u201979, mainly went to gigs and posed in a leather jacket. Worked in live events production for The Hippodrome in the 80s and produced and directed fringe theatre while working in film and TV in the 90s. Still dabbles in publicity work and writes scripts which gather dust. Works at Ealing Studios and recently formed a film production company. Always listening to music and reads constantly, re-learning guitar and loves all things creative. Still writes with pen and paper. Started to talk to people at bus stops.","link":"https:\/\/www.eyeplug.net\/magazine\/author\/michelle-mimivontussle-coomber\/","slug":"michelle-mimivontussle-coomber","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/www.eyeplug.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/f907f6aaa710d5a679e066eed68c9981.jpg?ver=1777201426","48":"https:\/\/www.eyeplug.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/8fe9cdb6ab10bebfe5b4e16f30806f4d.jpg?ver=1777201426","96":"https:\/\/www.eyeplug.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/litespeed\/avatar\/c4d998d82b75024aa5d58a8885397953.jpg?ver=1777201426"},"meta":[],"simple_local_avatar":null,"is_super_admin":false,"woocommerce_meta":{"variable_product_tour_shown":"","activity_panel_inbox_last_read":"","activity_panel_reviews_last_read":"","categories_report_columns":"","coupons_report_columns":"","customers_report_columns":"","orders_report_columns":"","products_report_columns":"","revenue_report_columns":"","taxes_report_columns":"","variations_report_columns":"","dashboard_sections":"","dashboard_chart_type":"","dashboard_chart_interval":"","dashboard_leaderboard_rows":"","order_attribution_install_banner_dismissed":"","scheduled_updates_promotion_notice_dismissed":"","homepage_layout":"","homepage_stats":"","task_list_tracked_started_tasks":"","android_app_banner_dismissed":"","launch_your_store_tour_hidden":"","coming_soon_banner_dismissed":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eyeplug.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eyeplug.net\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
