TitleGay Men's Health Crisis
Date1981-1993
DescriptionThe Centre for Disease Control declared an epidemic in October 1981 when reports began surfacing of a rare cancer spreading amongst gay men. The writer Larry Kramer called a meeting at his apartment in January 1982, acknowledging that gay men had a health crisis and that they were to discuss the rare cancer and raise money for research, the result of which was the birth of the Gay Men's Health Crisis.
This subseries consists of a letter written by Sonnabend alerting other doctors of an occurrence of Kaposi sarcoma in gay men in New York City in June 1981, fundraising material invitation card, GMHC newsletters and other press cuttings.
