Stephen Fry. British actor, writer and film maker
by Daniel Nicoletta
LGBT: San Francisco is the first book dedicated to photographer Daniel Nicoletta’s
archive of powerful images from the burgeoning lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender
mecca that was San Francisco in the 1970s through its ongoing journey to the
present. Nicoletta has been a leading chronicler of the LGBT civil rights movement
over the last 40 years. His images are a vivid and intimate record of the people who
came together to change the world: queens, dykes, transgender people, activists,
celebrities, politicos, artists and their allies.
