Summary:

The materials in the Robert Rosenkrantz Letters comprise one of sixteen collections of records from the ONE National Gay and Lesbian Archives, the world's largest repository of LGBTQ materials. These files document the lives of LGBTQ individuals from 1940 to 2012, the organizations they founded, the discrimination they faced, and the devastation of the AIDS crisis. Most of the items concern individuals or groups from California. This collection includes the prison correspondence of Robert Rosenkrantz, who in 1985 shot and killed a schoolmate who bullied him for his homosexuality. The majority of the letters date from October through December 1986. This collection is vital for anyone researching the many facets of LGBTQ life in California and the United States in the second half of the twentieth century.
