In the course of my journalism career I have been fortunate enough to have interviewed dozens and dozens of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered authors, personalities, & celebrities. It's been a great honor to contribute to the preservation of these unique and courageous voices for future generations. It is my hope that it provides added hope and certainty that we will never be silenced again.

A significant number of my interviews can be read at the wonderful archival site:

The Queer Cultural Center

Here's some more cool stuff:

The official Bewitched website contains my piece with the late (and out) Dick Sargent aka "The Second Darren". Also contained on this site is a piece I did talking with Paul Lynde Center Square biographers Steve Wilson and Joe Florenski.

Interview with the author of the gay Michael Manning interviews.


If you're looking for more just GOOGLE me.

It thrills me that these pieces are out there as sources of info for future gay and lesbian scholars. I'm very proud to have had the chance to chat with some great folks and to preserve those voices.

Also - I'm pleased to have captured some significant and influential voices for future horror movie scholars and enthusiasts.
Many are also included and archived on the great site GLBTQ: An Encyclopedia of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Culture. GLBTQ
As a guest contributor about ten pieces are available for reading at the wonderfully worthwhile UK site History and Literature which features essays by Rictor Norton. Gay History and Literature
With groundbreaking National Book Award Winner Paul Monette in 1990. The late author (Becoming a Man, Borrowed Time, etc.) became a great friend and mentor.
