	 <head>Scope and Content of Collection</head> 
	 <p>The bulk of the collection consists of writings by Evelyn Freedman
		between 1981 and 1985. These include lengthy interviews of major GLBT figures
		such as Troy Perry, Gore Vidal, John Rechy, Christine Jorgensen, and Charles
		Pierce, published in 
	 <title render="italic">Stallion</title> magazine, as well as another
	 interview with Rechy published in the 
	 <title render="italic">New York Native</title>, and three short articles
	 published in 
	 <title render="italic">Frontiers</title>. The writings also include copies
	 (as well as a few drafts and notes) of her social columns, "Around Town"
	 (published in 
	 <title render="italic">The Voice</title>) and "Out &amp; About Los Angeles"
	 (published in 
	 <title render="italic">Update</title>), detailing activities of Los Angeles
	 GLBT clubs and organizations and the gay social scene. The personal files
	 include typed notes for a curriculum vitae, and handwritten notes from a
	 two-day consciousness-raising workshop. The correspondence file includes a
	 handwritten note from actor Ed Asner. The motorcycle clubs file contains
	 materials relating to the Senate, a league of motorcycle and social clubs, and
	 color photographs taken of a November 1980 run by an unnamed Los Angeles
	 motorcycle club, most probably the Centurions. The photographs, all found in an
	 envelope dated November 17, 1983, from American Theatre Arts, include Oren
	 Curtis &amp; Steve Yudson in the play "Sherlock Holmes"; Jim Kepner receiving a
	 check from Gene's TV; Michael Goodwin (both a 1978 photograph and an original
	 drawing, "Discover the Brotherhood of man"); two members of Frontrunners Track
	 Club at a Christopher Street West run; a publicity shot for a June 1983
	 CameraVision show; and an advertisement for an exhibition of the erotic
	 photography of Doug Hinckle.</p>
