The materials in the Manuel boyFrank Papers comprise one of sixteen collections of records from the ONE National Gay and Lesbian Archives, the world's largest repository of LGBTQ materials. These files document the lives of LGBTQ individuals from 1940 to 2012, the organizations they founded, the discrimination they faced, and the devastation of the AIDS crisis. Most of the items concern individuals or groups from California. Manuel boyFrank (1916-1984) was a military serviceman, ONE Incorporated board member, and gay activist. This collection includes his 1940s-era correspondence with early gay activist pioneers Henry Gerber and Frank McCourt as well as his correspondence from the 1950s and 1960s with ONE Incorporated. Researchers will also find boyFrank's unpublished fiction, as well as clippings, transcribed texts from published materials, photographs, and notes and writings by boyFrank on various topics. This collection is vital for anyone researching the many facets of LGBTQ life in California and the United States in the second half of the twentieth century.
