Outer Appearances: More Faces from the Annals of The G&LR

by Richard Schneider Jr., Charles Hefling (Illustrator)

WHAT DOES IT MEAN for a magazine to hit the Big 3-0? For a person it usually means the end of youth and entry into dreaded adulthood, but for a niche-y, literate LGBT magazine, thirty years is beyond old age, a lifespan that no one would have predicted when the first issue of The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review came out in Winter 1994. This book is Volume II of an homage to the achievement of our Contributing Artist, Charles Hefling.

[Harrison Williams · Rating 4 out of 5]

Succinct and well illustrated. Includes biographical synopses of 27 well-known personalities tied to the LGBTQ community, from Cary Grant to David Sedaris. Not an in-depth narrative of anyone included, but a nice introduction. The illustrations by Charles Hefling are the highlight of this tome.
