Lucien Bertaux (1901 or 1905 - 1977) was a highly regarded French costume designer of the early to mid 20th Century. Among his clients were his longtime friend Josephine Baker. He was a highly regarded designer in the French theatres.
The work of Broadway's gay and lesbian artistic community went on display in 2007 when the Leslie/Lohman Gay Art Foundation Gallery presents "StageStruck: The Magic of Theatre Design." The exhibit was conceived to highlight the achievements of gay and lesbian designers who work in conjunction with fellow gay and lesbian playwrights, directors, choreographers and composers. Original sketches, props, set pieces and models — some from private collections — represent the work of over 60 designers, including Lucien Bertaux.
