Extra! Extra! Read all about it!!! I made front page of a newspaper again!!! My photograph and name appeared on the front page of The Brooklyn Paper, (Sept.22, 2007 Vol.30, No.37) the largest and most prestigious newspaper focused on Brooklyn, New York City's largest and 2nd most populated Borough! The story was about the Queer community being angry and disappointed with Marty Markowitz, Brooklyn Borough President, for endorsing what Queer activists call an "unethical bigot
" for civil court judge. Markowitz endorsed former NY Council member Noach Dear who consistently voted against Lesbian, Gay, Bi and Transgender civil rights legislation. The photograph printed on the front page was taken in June at the Borough President's official Gay Pride celebration at Brooklyn Borough Hall and is a picture of Mr. Markowitz with myself as Brooklynite Diva Mae West on one side and Howie V impersonating Cher on the other side. The caption under the photo reads -"In Happier Times: Borough President Markowitz parties with gender-benders Howie V Cher and Clover Honey during a Gay Pride Week event at Borough Hall in June."
