Sabrina "Brini" Maxwell is a fictional character played by American drag performer Ben Sander. Maxwell is a cross between Martha Stewart and Donna Reed who celebrates the fashion of the late 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s. Sander's character became a cult television icon after five years on Manhattan's local cable access channel.
In 2004, the Style Network national cable channel debuted The Brini Maxwell Show as a satirical look at how-to and home improvement television programming.
Sander was born July 23, 1969 in Boston, Massachusetts.
A graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, Sander developed a love for the fashion era between the years 1958 and 1974.
From his Chelsea apartment in New York, Sander started taping a local how-to show as Maxwell for the local cable access channel.
