Divine was born in Baltimore, Maryland and raised in a conservative, middle-class family. He began experimenting with drag performances in his teenage years and eventually became a regular at Baltimore's Hippo nightclub. It was there that he caught the attention of filmmaker John Waters, who cast him in several of his cult films, including "Pink Flamingos," "Female Trouble," and "Polyester."

Aside from his acting career, Divine also pursued a music career with his band, "Divine and the Neon Women," releasing several singles and albums. He appeared in music videos for artists such as David Bowie, and even collaborated on a song with Pet Shop Boys.

In the 1980s, Divine began to branch out into directing and screenwriting, with his film "Lust in the Dust" becoming a cult classic. Tragically, Divine passed away in 1988 at the age of 42 due to heart failure shortly after the release of his final film, "Hairspray." Today, he is remembered as an icon of the drag and LGBTQ+ community, and continues to inspire generations of performers.
