About this audiobook
KQED presents a report on photographer Anthony Friedkin and his efforts to document gay life more than 40 years ago. Friedkin's photographs were ahead of their time and most galleries wouldn’t show them -- until now. The culmination of Friedkin’s vision took 45 years, but it’s now being realized at the de Young Museum in San Francisco.
