Stephen H. Miller
Stephen H. Miller, a self-described "recovering progressive," has been writing about gay politics and culture for the better part of the past decade, with a syndicated column (now on hiatus) that ran in several gay publications including the New York Native, The Weekly News (Miami), and San Diego's Update. His writings have also appeared in gay publications including Bay Windows, Philadelphia Gay News, Frontiers, and others, as well as in New York Newsday and Heterodoxy, and in the anthologies Bound by Diversity (Sebastian Press) and Beyond Queer: Challenging Gay Left Orthodoxy (Free Press). As a former Christopher Street contributing writer, he authored a number of controversy-raising cover stories, including "Is Political Correctness Destroying the Gay Civil Rights Movement?" (November 1993), "Who Stole the Gay Movement?" (October 1994), and "Is Manhood a Social Disease?" (June 1995). He also did a stint as the "Media Man" columnist for Genre.
For five years, he served as a board member for the newly formed Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation in New York, where he was the group's media committee chair and editor of the GLAAD Bulletin. He helped organize a number of high profile actions, some of which he now recalls with some embarrassment. He received the 1990 GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Volunteer Services, but departed soon after over disagreements regarding the organization's mission and politics.
Steve was a contributor to the book Beyond Queer: Challenging Gay Left Orthodoxy.
