I first met Harvey Milk when, on a whim, I walked into his camera shop on Castro Street back in 1969 (back then "The Castro" was not as it became 5 years later). A nice, very knowledgeable photography nut, who over the next couple of years provided much of the knowledge I went on to use as a professional photographer. And then as I was involved in SF politics, it was fascinating to watch this guy go out and practically create the San Francisco gay political establishment.<BR/><BR/>And the other guy who was killed that day, George Mscone, was possibly the best politican and human being it was ever my privilege to know. Had that terrible event not happened, I think a helluva lot more people would have known that.<BR/><BR/>Of all the movies being released this holiday season, this one I have hope for.TCinLAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10019943818456775718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-34186173473180519352008-11-09T21:59:00.000-08:002008-11-09T21:59:00.000-08:00These previews are always great.
