34: Wendy Rouder The Lesbian Story Project

    • Personal Journals

It's hard to think of a time before credit cards and ATMs.  However, this was when my guest, Wendi Rouder, came out.  In this episode, she shares her experience of coming out in the early1960s.  
Later, she found herself in San Fransisco during the AIDS epidemic.  With a background in theater, she was the driving force in creating the Arcaid Theatre Group.  This company was specifically for those who tested positive for HIV.  
From Wendy's childhood, being enamored with actresses of the day, to leading the Arcaid Theatre Group, Wendy shares a powerful life journey.
