20th Anniversary of LBA at MHC, 1996
In 1993, my friend Janis Walworth and I wrote up a list of questions we wished we'd known the answers to early on in our relationships over the years. We've both pulled it out over the years as potentially-significant people have come into our lives, so it seemed like a good idea to share it on the Web: Is She Right For Me?
20th Anniversary of LBA at MHC, 1996Does anyone else actually remember when Astronomer wrote in to Choragos? Here are the clippings from the college newspaper twenty years ago, 1975-76
Glad to hear things have changed! Support the Mount
Holyoke Lesbian Alumnae Network! Are you on The List? If you are interested in
information about the MHC-LAN, please contact Donna Albino dalbino@mtholyoke.edu
If you want
to know more about lesbian culture in America in the '90's, read this book: The
Girls Next Door: Into the Heart of Lesbian America by Lindsy Van Gelder
and Pamela Robin Brandt (MHC '69), Simon & Schuster, 1996.
They take a close look at Michigan, Dinah, and the Lesbian Avengers (if you don't
know what these are, you need to read this book!), and have dozens of personal
interviews, including one with MHC professor Jean Grossholtz, talking about coming
out on campus in the '70's and her silver medal in the Gay Games. A fabulous read!
(Just one complaint: enough with the U-Haul joke!!!)
You can order
it in paperback from amazon.com ($10.40 + shipping) or order
it in hardcover ($16.10 + shipping).
You may also want to visit Stonewall and Beyond: Lesbian and Gay Culture. This is the online edition of a Columbia University Libraries exhibition held from May 25 to September 17, 1994 in conjunction with the international celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Stonewall.
After creating the "virtual button" above, I was inspired to transfer some of my button banner to the Web as a Virtual Button Banner, in the name of original content. Eventually, you will be able to click on the buttons, but not quite yet!
I have my own domain, http://www.ogram.org,
where the bulk of my personal web development takes place, more specifically, a site
about 17th century colonial New England & the Salem Witchcraft Trials of 1692,
and a site about my grandfather, Armstrong Sperry, who won the Newbery Award in 1941
for his book Call It Courage.
