Saturday, July 10, 2010

Ritz East Theater 2 • 4:45pm

This year's Barbara Gittings Award recipient is Kathy Wolfe, who created a ground-breaking and respected company, Wolfe Video where she is the CEO. Realizing that there was a largely untapped audience of lesbians and gay men eager for affirmative images, in 1985, she founded Wolfe Video. What began, as a small mail order company twenty-five years ago, is now, the oldest and largest exclusive distributor of gay and lesbian films in North America. Ms. Wolfe will be receiving this award before a screening on My Normal, on Saturday, July 10th, at 4:45 pm at the Ritz East 2. This award is presented in cooperation with the Equality Forum.
