After a period of being involved in protests against the Vietnam War, Patricia Robb was a founding member of the Gay Liberation movement in New Zealand and was present at early meetings at Middleton Road, Remuera. Fiona Clark reflects that Pat (Patricia) was “Notably present at early gay liberation, she stood out actually, never waning from being ‘out’ and on the street and who she was.” In this photograph, taken with an Elam art-school camera, Robb wears a green-coloured shirt and leather jacket. For a period Robb lived on Abbey Street and Clark remembers her striding in her boots down Karangahape Road, cutting quite a figure.
