We applaud Jennifer C. Pizer, a professor at the University of California, who focuses on sexual orientation law, for her comments in today's NY Times.

“Many people of good will have grown up with the belief that homosexuality is dangerous,” she said. “The court is saying that the fact that certain congressmen and justices may have a fondness for the 1950s doesn’t change the fact that under the rule of law everyone has to be treated equally.”

At a recent Washington D.C. book party, we discussed our hopes for judgements such as this one in Massachusetts. Authors pictured with Democratic strategist Hilarie Rosen.

Co-Author Alan Shayne shares this handsome photo of himself as a young man.

The fun of the picture is the two people I had met on the ship the Liberté in 1954 (on my first trip to Europe) and who I haven't seen since, read "Double Life" and contacted me. One of them sent me this picture of the way I looked on the crossing. Bob Starring and Joanne Gilbert have since become good E-mail friends

For all you Mad Men enthusiasts, co-author Norman Sunshine came up with some of the most memorable one liners that define a generation

.'WHAT BECOMES A LEGEND MOST?',

This campaign for 'Blackgama' Minks became so legendary that famous stars clamored to be on the list to be photographed. Now a renowned painter and sculptor, Sunshine made an indelible mark on advertising culture at that time.

WHAT A GREAT SURPRISE! Just alerted that the terrific actor Alan Cumming has recommended our book, "Double Life," in the book section of People magazine, May 28 issue.
We don't know him except for his outstanding performances, so we are very pleased indeed.
