Lesbians in the Twentieth Century: 1900-1999

Curated by Esther Newton

"Lesbians in the Twentieth Century" was created by Professor Esther Newton and the graduate and undergraduate students in the seminar on "Lesbian History" that she taught in fall of 2006 at the University of Michigan. Their original site can be viewed at: http://sitemaker.umich.edu/lesbian.history/home

Newton and her students agreed to contribute an extended version of the site to OutHistory.org, and to develop it further in the fall of 2008, the second time that Newton teaches her lesbian history course.
