Henry Gerber and Manuel Boyfrank: c. 1935-c.1957
A group of approximately two hundred letters exchanged between Gerber and Manuel Boyfrank (about 30 percent by Gerber, c. 1935-c. 1957) is in the collection of Jim Kepner (Kepner to J.K., March 11, 1974). The correspondence contains references to the 1924 Chicago organizing attempt, to articles Gerber published under pseudonyms, to four books written by Gerber, to plans for a new homosexual emancipation organization.
Edward Perry Warren:
Between 1927 and 1930, an American art connoisseur and ex-patriot, Edward Perry Warren, published in London, under the pseudonym Arthur Lyon Raile, his three volume Defense of Uranian Love (London: Cayme Press, 1928, 1930), described by Timothy d'Arch Smith as "a sixty-thousand word apologia for an acceptance of the preeminence of the Hellenic paederastic philosophies."

Earl Lind (Ralph Werther-Jennie June): The Riddle of the Underworld, 1921
Transgender Memoir of 1921 Found
LIND His extravagant "feminine" role-playing was based upon an acceptance and extreme exaggeration of the most traditional concept of "femininity." What Kate Millett has said of the homosexual characters of Jean Genet may be applied to Earl Lind: "Because of the perfection with which they ape the 'masculine' and 'feminine' of heterosexual society, [Genet's] homosexual characters represent the best contemporary insight into its constitution and beliefs."
Millett adds: Genet's homosexuals "have unerringly penetrated to the essence of what heterosexual society imagines to be the character of 'masculine' and 'feminine,' and which it mistakes for the nature of male and female, thereby preserving the traditional relation of the sexes."[2]

ACT UP Oral History Project
Cable Access Show
Begins Friday, December 26th 1 AM (that’s late Thursday night)
And airs Every Friday @ 1 AM through March 20, 2009
With a grant from Manhattan Neighborhood Network, the ACT UP Oral History Project has created a 9-part cable access series. Edited by James Wentzy and Jim Hubbard. The series includes programs on “Changing the CDC Definition of AIDS” and “ACT UP’s Greatest Achievements.”
The ACT UP Oral History Project has been documenting the history of AIDS Activism by conducting long-format interviews of members of ACT UP. We’ve done 103 interviews so far. We are creating a vital and complex portrait of a diverse community of people who came to believe that self-empowerment, social change and direct political action could provide solutions to the AIDS crisis and investigating the history of a movement that chose civic engagement over palliative solutions and which has served as a model for increased participation in public affairs for marginalized groups in the New York City and around the world.
For more information on the project go to www.actuporalhistory.org.

It includes numbers of newspaper clippings concerning women wearing pants and reported episodes of transvestism.
