Klaus Sperber. Klaus Nomi was born on January 24, 1944 in Bavaria, Germany and came to prominence in New York City as a performance artist and counterculture icon in the 1970’s. Nomi’s act involved highly charged operatic howling over electronic arrangements and grandiose set treatments complete with colorful strobe lights and smoke pyrotechnics. Highly enigmatic, rumored a-sexual, and familiar to the likes of Jean Michel Basquiat, Kraftwerk, and Keith Harring, Nomi was an icon in the NYC club scene during its heyday. He achieved more “mainstream” exposure when he performed with David Bowie as a guest on Saturday Night Live in 1979.
