A prolific figure of the 20th century, Steward, known alternately as Phil Sparrow or Phil Andros, was an accomplished tattoo artist, training the likes of Ed Hardy, novelist and collaborator of Alfred Kinsey. He kept an extensive catalog of his sexual escapades, his 'Stud File,' which, along with his expansive life story, was written down in a biography by Jack Fritscher (American, b. 1939).
