​                     A charming collection of vintage photos. This volume is a unique collection of photographs of LGBTQ and/or cross-​                             dressing people from 1900 to 1960. While this is a time many now regard as the deeply closeted "dark ages," these ​                           photos show LGBTQ who were clearly out (at least for a moment)-some camping it up for the cameras while others in ​                         loving or clearly domestic poses. These photographs were discovered and collected by the author at flea markets and ​                         garage sales, the names of the subjects and their photographers lost to time. He was intrigued by the fact that the ​                               pictures show couples posed hand in hand, revealing happiness, serenity, and a surprising air of freedom.

Leonard Fink - Coming Out: Photographs of Gay Liberation and the New York Waterfront
                     May 20th, 2015
                     ISBN 3905297469 (ISBN13: 9783905297461)

                     Amateur photographer Leonard Fink lived and worked in New York City, documenting over 25 years of its gay life,                                including pride parades, bars, and especially the decaying architecture of the West Side piers, which served as a space                      for gay men to interact socially and sexually. From the mid-1970s onwards, Fink captured this time of empowerment,                            cruising, sexual freedom, and openness and experimentation, and his large collection of photographs has proven to be                        a significant and engaging visual record of the city’s gay subculture before the rise of HIV/AIDS would forever change it.                      This publication marks the first time Finks images have come together as a group.

​                     ISBN 1629630411 (ISBN13: 9781629630410)

​                     A photographic essay that explores a wide spectrum of experiences told from the perspective of a diverse group of ​                             young people, ages 14–24, identifying as queer (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or questioning), Speaking OUT: ​                           Queer Youth in Focus presents portraits without judgment or stereotype by eliminating environmental influence with a ​                         stark white backdrop. This backdrop acts as a blank canvas, where each subject’s personal thoughts are handwritten ​                         onto the final photographic print. With more than 65 portraits photographed over a period of 10 years, the book provides ​                     rare insight into the passions, confusions, prejudices, joys, and sorrows felt by queer youth and gives a voice to an ​                             underserved group of people that are seldom heard and often silenced. The collaboration of image and first-person ​                             narrative serves to provide an outlet, show support, create dialogue, and help those who struggle.

Travels in a Gay Nation: Portraits of LGBTQ Americans

                     December 1, 2017
​                     ISBN

​                     Throughout the 1970s, filmmaker Barbara Hammer toured the United States, Africa, and Europe, making film after film ​                       about women and the lesbian experience, both of which had seldom been seen by a woman, for women on screen ​                             before. She made a slew of now-legendary experimental films, including Sis­ters! (1973), Dyketactics (1974), Multiple ​                           Orgasm (1976), Sappho (1978), and Double Strength (1978), more or less inventing lesbian cinema at a time when ​                             such material had largely been relegated to the pornographic imagination of male artists and filmmakers. During this ​                           prolific period, Hammer photographed her travels, her lovers, moments of community and kinship between her ​                                     collaborators on set, private and public performances, friends, strangers.

As art collector and museum                            founder Charles Leslie put it, Stellar is a living witness to the urban drama which spanned the years from 1969 to the                            present and his imagery reconfirms the centrality, in spite of everything, of eternal male beauty.

                     Photographer Paul Freeman takes a sometimes tongue-in-cheek look at the way European men have adorned and                              mythologized themselves and their physical courage over the centuries, and refers for inspiration to monumental art and                      paintings that were the work of artists who tended to depict a fantasy of sensuality rather than the brutal masculinity of                        reality.

The Kids: The Children of LGBTQ Parents in the USA

​                     ASINB06ZXTND6Y

​                     Judges, academics, and activists keep wondering how children are impacted by having gay parents. Maybe it's time to ​                       ask the kids. For the past four years, award-winning photographer Gabriela Herman, whose mother came out when ​                             Herman was in high school and was married in one of Massachusetts' first legal same-sex unions, has been ​                                       photographing and interviewing children and young adults with one or more parent who identify as lesbian, gay, trans, or ​                     queer.

Body Alchemy: Transsexual Portraits

                    ISBN 1573440620 (ISBN13: 9781573440622)

                    The idea of gender is no long as fixed as it once was: Tootsie, La Cage aux Folles, and Milton Berle saw to that. But                             none of this has prepared us for Loren Cameron's amazing portraits of transsexuals. Beautifully reproduced and                                   complemented with notes and short essays, these portraits of women who are now men may startle, but they will also                         make you marvel at the genuine complexities of life, sex, and desire. Body Alchemy might have been a curiosity, like                           Diane Arbus's photographs of those outside the physical and cultural mainstream, but Cameron's art is so empathetic,                         so precise, that we are left in awe and with a new understanding of the realities of being human.

Her first book, Every Breath We Drew, compiles color portraits of the artist and others.                      Working within the framework of queer experience and actively constructed masculinity, these portraits examine the                            intersection between private, individual identity and the search for intimate connection with others.

                     ISBN1909526398 (ISBN13: 9781909526396)

                     Daniel Nicoletta (born 1954) has been a leading chronicler of the LGBT civil rights movement in San Francisco over the                      last 40 years. This is the first book dedicated to his powerful photographs documenting the journey of the burgeoning                          lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender mecca that was San Francisco in the 1970s through to the present. Nicoletta is best                        known for his iconic images of Harvey Milk, one of the world's first openly gay elected officials, who was assassinated                          by a homophobic colleague in 1978.

                     ISBN 0789300796 (ISBN13: 9780789300799)

                     This book documents a moment in the history of American culture - a period in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s that gave birth                        to new notions of male beauty and desire, and to a new type of male icon. Long before Stonewall and the gay pride                              movement, there was a small group of men - both photographers and the models who sat for them - who helped pave                          the way for male sexual liberation. Led by the photographer George Platt Lynes, the painter Paul Cadmus, and the arts                        patron Lincoln Kirstein, this group shattered taboos surrounding the artistic presentation of the male figure.

During the culturally                           tumultuous years of 1969 and 1970, Friedkin made a series of photographs that together offer an eloquent and                                     expressive visual chronicle of the gay communities of Los Angeles and San Francisco at the time.

                    Author and photographer Susan Kuklin met and interviewed six transgender or gender-neutral young adults and used                         her considerable skills to represent them thoughtfully and respectfully before, during, and after their personal                                       acknowledgment of gender preference. Portraits, family photographs, and candid images grace the pages, augmenting                       the emotional and physical journey each youth has taken. Each honest discussion and disclosure, whether joyful or                             heartbreaking, is completely different from the other because of family dynamics, living situations, gender, and the                               transition these teens make in recognition of their true selves.

                    ISBN 8415931239 (ISBN13: 9788415931232)

                    Powerful, lyrical and controversial, Alvin Baltrop's photographs are a groundbreaking exploration of clandestine gay                             culture in New York in the 1970s and 80s. During that era, the derelict warehouses beneath Manhattan's West Side piers                     became a lawless, forgotten part of the city that played host to gay cruising, drug smuggling, prostitution and suicides.                         Baltrop documented this scene, unflinchingly and obsessively capturing everything from fleeting naked figures in                                 mangled architectural environments to scenes of explicit sex and police raids on the piers.

                     At the National Council of Churches, Robert Spike had organized American churches to support the passage of both the                      Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act, to march in Selma and to organize in Mississippi. An important white leader in the                      black civil rights struggle, he helped the LBJ White House pass legislation and write crucial civil rights speeches. In the                        midst of what he described as “the dirtiest fight of my life” struggling to save a federal Mississippi education program, he                      was viciously murdered in Columbus, Ohio. The murder was never solved. Very little effort went into finding the                                    murderer. The Columbus police and the FBI hinted the unsolved murder was connected to Spike’s undisclosed gay life.                      During his father's rise in the civil rights movement, Paul Spike lived

Picturing Men: A Century of Male Relationships in Everyday American Photography
                     May 1st 2006
                     ISBN0226368580 (ISBN13: 9780226368580)

                     There was a time in America when two men pictured with their arms wrapped around each other, or perhaps holding                            hands, weren’t necessarily seen as sexually involved—a time when such gestures could be seen simply as those of                            intimate friendship rather than homoeroticism. Such is the time John Ibson evokes in Picturing Men, a striking visual                            record of changes in attitudes about relationships between gentlemen, soldiers, cowboys, students, lumberjacks,                                  sailors, and practical jokers. Spanning from 1850 to 1950, the 142 everyday photographs that richly illustrate Picturing                          Men radiate playfulness, humor, and warmth.

                     One of the most important artists to emerge in the last quarter century was Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989), whose                          bold photographs left a strong impression on society and culture. Known primarily for his refined aesthetic,                                            Mapplethorpe created classical portraits, nudes, and still lifes that helped redefine photography as an art form at a time                        when the medium was floundering. Mapplethorpe's controversial sex pictures -- blunt images of sadomasochism and                          live "play" -- were simultaneously condemned and revered during Mapplethorpe's life, and later became the center of                          debate over public funding for the arts, censorship, and the First Amendment.

Sleepless
                     May 1st 2010
                     ISBN3867870500 (ISBN13: 9783867870504)

                     Thomas Synnamon's SLEEPLESS is a successful first monograph of a new artist's work. Previously active as a model,                        Synnamon brings to his new venture of photography a core of information that most other photographers do not                                    possess: he has been the subject of photographs and now he is the creator. That may seem a small additive to his self-                       trained new vocation, but spending time with his images encourages an inner knowledge of just how to achieve the                              result he wants. His models appear to confide in him in the creative act in a very responsive way, making these black                          and white and color photographs in praise of the male form a very personal success for him.

Snap : Photographs by David Sprigle
                     November 27th 1999
                     ISBN1883923417 (ISBN13: 9781883923419)

                     In SNAP, Sprigle fundamentally changes the way we understand the beauty of the accidental moment. These images of                      rough elegance are reminiscent of the attenuated figures, movement and tension of Baroque Paintings. Yet, the                                    characteristics are random--products of ostensible lighting conditions. The photos, Sprigle's newest series, are a visual                        essay about our instant culture. About a new aesthetic that arises from the intersection of cheap consumer technology                        and art. He presents a sanctioned voyeurism: reality tightly cropped, frontally composed and blurred by time to become                        unexpectedly beautiful. His color pallet, seemingly based in oil paint rather then photographic grain, is drawn from the                          Impressionistic Masters. Sprigle's work examines the way light rearranges an almost-classical memory of the human                            form.

Robert Mapplethorpe: The Photographs
                     March 15th, 2016
                     ISBN 160606469X (ISBN13: 9781606064696)

                     The legacy of Robert Mapplethorpe (1946 –1989) is rich and complicated, triggering controversy, polarizing critics, and                        providing inspiration for many artists who followed him. Mapplethorpe taught himself about the history of art, how to run                        a studio, how to network, and how to keep the public interested in him. At the same time, he honed a distinctive                                    individual vision based on craftsmanship and an aesthetic of classical grace. One of the most influential figures of his                          time, today Mapplethorpe stands as an example to emerging photographers who continue to test boundaries and                                concepts of the beautiful.

                     Rick Day's opulent co ffee-table books Players and Players Two both became instant bestsellers. At first glance, the                            photographs are all about sports, about immaculate and trained bodies in rugby wear, tight trunks or nothing at all. But                        Rick Day doesn't just take pictures of masculine sex appeal. His work impresses with an almost corporeal tension. The                        interaction of straightforwardness and intimacy keeps us wondering: Who is the subject and who is the object? Rick                            Day's photographs are perfectly staged. All Players is a 288-page collection of all new material.

                     Growing up in the 1950s, Tom Bianchi would head into downtown Chicago and pick up 25-cent -physique- magazines at                      newsstands. In one such magazine, he found a photograph of bodybuilder Glenn Bishop on Fire Island. -Fire Island                            sounded exotic, perhaps a name made up by the photographer, - he recalls in the preface to his latest monograph. -I                            had no idea it was a real place. Certainly, I had no idea then that it was a place I would one day call home.- In 1970,                            fresh out of law school, Bianchi began traveling to New York, and was invited to spend a weekend at Fire Island Pines,                        where he encountered a community of gay men.

Out In America: A Portrait Of Gay And Lesbian Life
                     January 1, 1994
                     ISBN0670858501 (ISBN13: 9780670858507)

                     For Gay and Lesbian Americans, visibility has always been a key issue. While some maintain a life in the closet for                              family, career, or personal reasons, others come out to a world that rarely celebrates, and at times refuses to tolerate,                          the simple courage of people just being themselves. Out in America should look no different from the rest of America to                        the casual observer - there are farmers and artists, sky divers, families, professionals, and retirees. But for gay men,                            lesbians, and their supporters, the 250 photographs in this book offer evidence of a community that knows no                                      boundaries, a community that has put down roots in truly every segment of American society.

Speaking about her work, Corinne                            says, If I became a 'visible and accessible lesbian artist' it is because of the images made to fill a perceived void, to fill                          these blank spaces where desire and questioning and transcendence converged, where my intellectual longings and                            seven years of university art training responded to the social and cultural forces set in motion in the 1960s.
