Gary’s long involvement with the LGBTIQ+ community began in the 1970s and included co-founding the Homosexual Law Reform Coalition and Gay Teachers Group in 1975 which went on to produce the important Young, Gay & Proud publication. Gary has been involved with ALGA since its beginnings. His management of ALGA’s finances has been instrumental to its longevity and his work with volunteers and researchers has ensured the collection’s preservation and accessibility.
