Description
Description
A panel discussion from the 1991 OutWrite Writer's Conference that is moderated by historian and journalist Gerard Koskovich and featuring journalist Michael Bronski, publisher Carol Seajay, and writer Coletta Reid. The panel is titled "The First Gay Presses" and is focused on the history of publishing in the gay and lesbian community. Koskovich contextualizes the publication of queer stories in the 1950s and 1960s, and Seajay discusses the differences and separatism in publishing for gay literature and lesbian literature. She also discusses the interweaving of lesbian and feminist publishing. Bronski relates his experiences as a writer for Fag Rag Magazine in the 1970s. This material was digitized through the generous support of Larry Brenner and Angelo Figone.
