Mark Segal has long been one of the most visible -- and effective -- advocates for GLBT rights. But his work extends far beyond advocacy and delves into the nuts-and-bolts of housing for the elderly, political representation, etc.

On December 2, 1973 Mark Segal famously disrupted the live broadcast of the CBS Evening News when he sat on the desk directly between the camera and news anchor Walter Cronkite, yelling, “Gays protest CBS prejudice!” He was wrestled to the studio floor by the stagehands on live national television -- and thereby drew an enormous amount of attention to the struggle for equal rights.

Bound galleys available in May.

Submit to Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Program.

Third publication on the Open Lens imprint, which was very successful with their debut title Makeda by Randall Robinson.

Focused outreach to Mark's numerous contacts in media.

Simultaneous publication of paperback and e-book editions.

Giveaways on Goodreads, LibraryThing, and through Advance Access.

Galleys (and e-galleys via Edelweiss) available 4-6 months in advance of publication.

Targeted outreach to gay media and bookstores.

Nomination to GLBT awards and any other appropriate nonfiction awards.
