Keith Stern's Queers in History: The Comprehensive Encyclopedia Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and Transgenders (Benbella Books) began as a self-published database on a diskette, first sold at A Different Light Bookstore in West Hollywood in 1993. Then it had a life on the internet. Now at over 900 entries, Queers in History is also a comprehensive, fascinating, and thoroughly enjoyable book. Join Keith Stern for this Pioneer Square talk—a neighborhood that once was home to many of the bars, clubs, and bathhouses of Seattle's gay community. "Keith Stern is a rare historian who reports his findings with wit and passion, and he can be trusted. But if one or two of the names entered in his engaging list are doubtful about their inclusion, perhaps they won't on reflection, object much to being between the sheets with Michelangelo and Armistead Maupin—what could be cozier?" - Sir Ian McKellen.
