Angie Xtravaganza (October 17, 1964 – March 31, 1993) was born in New York City. Angie was a founding member and the Mother of the House of Xtravaganza. Consistent with the tradition of New York's gay ball scene, in 1982 Angie took the House name as her surname. A transgender performer, underground superstar and an active member of New York's gay ball culture, Angie was featured in Jennie Livingston's 1990 documentary film Paris is Burning. By the time the documentary was screened the House of Xtravaganza, the first primarily Latino house within New York's gay ball scene, was almost ten years old.
