Richard Adkins
Growing up in Northern California, Richard Adkins navigated a Catholic upbringing and a world with little positive representation of gay life. He reflects on coming out in the 1970s, confronting anti-gay attitudes in the entertainment industry, and the devastating murder of his brother in a hate crime. His story also takes an unexpected turn when, after 45 years apart, Richard reconnects with a former partner and finds a renewed chance at love and companionship later in life.
