Billy Monk
Billy Monk (born William John Monk) was a Cape Town bouncer and photographer in the early 60s- during the years of apartheid in South Africa. Known as a charming man, a womanizer, a fighter, a musician, and a reader, Billy Monk had a reputation around the city of Cape Town. Although not too much is known about his life, his legacy lives on through his photographs. ==Early life== Not much is known about the early life of Billy Monk. Although he was born on January 11 it was never sure what year, and no one knew his exact age. He didn't like to speak about his childhood, although it is clear that he came from a home that was less than whole- a drunk for a father and a stepmother. His early occupations consisted of surviving in any manner he could, largely through petty crime. He was sent to jail for two years as a teenager for stealing a safe, and there learned to become a receptionist. He then moved on to smuggling- be it across the Transkei or poaching fish off the coast of Cape Town. Throughout the course of his life he held a variety of jobs- a Woolworths model, a photographers assistant, a diamond diver, a sandal shop owner, the proprietor of a vegetarian restaurant, and finally, a bouncer and photographer.〔
