Harvey Milk was the first "out" gay to be elected to public office anywhere in the world. His life mirrored the dramatic emergence of America's gay community in the 1970s and his brutal murder caused an outpouring of rage and grief expressed in a storm of rioting in San Francisco. This biography looks at Harvey Milk's life and times.
