DESCRIPTION:When someone is deeply inspired, nothing can stop them from succeeding in 
 life. Kathleen Archambeau will discuss her new creation Pride & Joy, a book 
 of pure inspiration, filled with stories of queer heroes who overcame, 
 persisted and lived life both out and joyously out loud, completely on 
 their own terms. These icons and real people role models broke boundaries, 
 broke some rules and paved the way for every generation to come. Their 
 message? Be true to yourself, above all. Express, create, write, dance, 
 parent, sing, tech, rise up, preach, teach and shine your light for all to 
 see.\n\nDiverse and global. Famous and unsung. From the brilliant Emma 
 Donaghue, author of the #1 New York Times Bestselling Room and Tony 
 Kushner, who won both a Pulitzer Prize and a Tony Award for his stunning 
 Angels in America to little-known activists in Uganda, Hungary, New Zealand 
 and elsewhere for whom each day is an act of remarkable courage. There is a 
 story here for everyone in the LGBT community who has ever questioned their 
 sexual orientation or gender identity, or discovered it. Award-winning 
 writer and longtime LGBTQ activist Kathleen Archambeau tells the untold 
 stories from diverse LGBT community voices around the corner or around the 
 world.\n\n\n“Pride and Joy: LGBTQ Artists, Icons and Everyday 
 Heroes…spotlights queer luminaries living open, fulfilling, happy and 
 successful lives—a departure from many LGBTQ portrayals.”\n - Marilyn 
 R. Atlas, Award-Winning Co-Producer, Real Women Have Curves (HBO)\n 
 \n“In-depth stories of 30 global queer icons and is sure to embolden the 
 next generation and give hope to those still struggling with their sexual 
 and gender identity.”\n-Betty Sullivan, PhD, Publisher, San Francisco Bay 
 Times\n \n“Pride and Joy: LGBTQ Artists, Icons and Everyday Heroes not 
 only highlights the contributions of LGBT citizens to world culture, but 
 shows young queer students that being openly gay can bring you happiness, 
 fulfillment and success. The impact it will have on our next generation, as 
 well as on all those who care about social justice, will be 
 significant.”\n - Mark Leno, First Openly Gay Man Elected to the 
 California State Senate\n\n\n
