I met Evan Friedman at a gay bar in Jackson Heights Queens probably sometime in 1977. If I recall correctly he grew up in Jackson Heights and had come out of the closet right after graduating from high school. I never knew precisely how old he was though I think he would have been around 19 or so at the time my friends and I met him. Like most of my friends in those days I hadn't made my way out of the closet until I was in my mid-20s so we were impressed with him simply for coming out so young. He was cute and friendly and self-possessed in ways we weren't used to seeing among younger gay guys. I took a picture of Evan at New York Pride in 1978, shortly before he moved to San Francisco. At some point a number of years ago I sent the Chorus a copy of that photo which I'm hoping you have in your archives. If not I'm happy to send you another one.
