Jackie 60 was a nightclub hosting weekly parties from 1990 to 1999 in New York's Meatpacking District. It was founded by DJ Johnny Dynell, writer Chi Chi Valenti, fashion designer Kitty Boots and dancer/choreographer Richard Move, who were later (ca. 1995) joined by Brian Butterick AKA Hattie Hathaway. It served gay, fetish-dressed, straight, transvestite and poetic clubgoers for a decade. In 1994 Dynell and Valenti purchased the nightclub, "Bar Room 432", from Anthony DePalma and renamed it "Mother." It closed on December 28, 1999.
