Manage episode 423543364 series 3313078
This week my guest is Christine Barker, author of Third Girl From the Left, a touching memoir chronicling her time as one of the original cast members of A Chorus Line and her personal experience with the AIDS epidemic.
We discussed the shame and secrecy so many gay men were forced to endure in a time of homophobia and fear around AIDS. In particular, Christine shares the story of her beloved older brother Laughlin, the life and business partner of Perry Ellis, and her parents refusal to accept him even as he was dying.
I know you will enjoy this interview as well as her book which will truly move you. You can grab a copy here - https://a.co/d/5v2ktPC
