Andrea Tagliabue met the bohemian artist and author Charles Henry Ford in the 1960s while Tagliabue was working as a film actor in Italy. The two quickly formed a bond and lived together in Paris and eventually New York. Through Ford, Tagliabue was introduced to the wider LGBQT+ community that existed in Lower Manhattan during the 60s and 70s.
