Charles and I met when he came to Tulane, and we were great friends from the start. After college, we reconnected in 1970, and I lived with him and his lover Ric in Ann Arbor while finishing my dissertation. We became the best of friends (sisters) and moved to Washington DC together, where we owned a big Victorian at Logan Circle and hosted a gay 'commune' with years of stylish dinner parties and famous entertainments. When Charles' mental health deteriorated in the late 70s, he left to live with his parents (whom I also knew), and I was devastated--eventually also moving away to a new job in New York. We kept in long-letter touch for the rest of his life, and I suffered for him in his fits of depression and despair. He was the closest and dearest friend in my life--truly my soul-sibling, and as such he of course features prominently and lovingly in my third memoir GAY GEISHA.
