We Must Love One Another Or Die
Larry Kramer, America's highest-profile gay man, is known world-wide as an activist, polemicist, essayist, playwright, novelist, film producer and scriptwriter, and -- since 1988 -- as a person living with HIV. As the founder of Gay Men's Health Crisis and ACT UP, he has revolutionized the way we look at medicine and disease.
