JILL GREENBERG For this issue, Greenberg shot four of America’s most influential LGBT storytellers: our cover stars Jill Soloway, Janet Mock, Ellen Page, and Lydia Polgreen (page 54). “To have conversations with women trying to change things for all of us was so inspiring,” says the photographer, who’s currently working on a feminist short film. SCOTT INDRISEK Indrisek, who’s written for The Village Voice and The New Yorker, profiled three of L.A.’s hottest young artists for this issue (page 74) and learned the differences between New York and L.A.’s artistic climates. “Artists in L.A. have cars and dogs,” he says, “and probably less seasonal affective disorder than their East Coast peers.” Indrisek runs Teen Party, a Brooklyn art loft devoted to “putting intergenerational pairings in a domestic space.” DANIEL SEUNG…

It’s a question that has plagued men for centuries: “How, if I am not a rapper, a pimp, or Tony Manero, do I pull off a gold chain?” The answer is, and always will be, very carefully. For your daily style needs, opt for a thin, subtle piece with character. A good gold necklace should look like something you found in your great-grandfather’s desk drawer, and it should be an investment (it’s jewelry, after all). Pair one with a V-neck tee and a blazer, or with a Henley, and make sure it falls right around your breastbone. And if you’re feeling particularly flashy, go ahead and pile on a few of your favorite blings.…

LONDON London is often the first stop for LGBTQ visitors crossing the Atlantic, and for good reason. It’s steeped in history, but it’s also effortlessly contemporary, with a thriving nightlife scene and some of Europe’s most exciting restaurants and hotels. Find your crib at The Ned, a new venture by London’s Soho House in partnership with the team behind New York’s NoMad Hotel. Guests get a choice of nine restaurants and 12 categories of rooms for every pocket. There’s no shortage of gay bars in East London, but it’s hard to find a place more convivial than The Glory in Shoreditch (281 Kingsland Road), or more risqué than the underground East Bloc (217 City Road). But why stop there? You can spend a whole week in popular gay nabes like…

In the spring of 1966, photographer Larry Fink, working on assignment for New York literary mag East Side Review, followed Andy Warhol and his East Village entourage (including Edie Sedgwick, Ingrid Superstar, and Lou Reed), capturing the cultural climate at the peak of Warhol’s Factory era. Fink shot the tribe over the course of five days, and though East Side Review folded before the images could be published, they’ve been resurrected in Fink on Warhol, a transgressive, nostalgic monograph available this month from Damiani. Fink, who’s best known for his 1984 photobook, Social Graces, says the images collected dust because he, too, was swept up in the movement. “I was high all the time back then,” he says, “and I wasn’t a careerist. So I didn’t think I needed to…

IN 1997, THE FIRST WAVE OF antiretroviral drugs was just beginning to have an impact, as the number of those dying of AIDS-related illnesses began to drop. That same year, a six-story building of 36 studio apartments for HIV-positive men and women was officially opened in New York’s lower east side. “It’s taken seven years of battle waged against every level of government to see this project through,” Keith Cylar told The New York Times at the time. A dogged activist and co-founder of Housing Works, Cylar had decided that the standard-issue cot and locker for housing the homeless wasn’t good enough. Housing Works’ first ground-up facility would offer on-site health care services and apartments designed by Alan Wanzenberg, a famous uptown architect whose clients included Richard Gere and Mick…

“You would not describe Lydia as someone who is patiently waiting for things to come her way. She has her eyes set on various prizes, and she’s really good at making things happen for herself.” THE LAST TIME LYDIA POLGREEN felt boredom—real boredom, the soul-crushing kind—she was 21 and working for a company in suburban Virginia that helped applicants for H-1B visas. The job was a stopgap between college, where she’d studied Marx and Hegel, and a hazy, uncertain future in which she imagined she might teach philosophy. In the meantime, there she was toiling in some random job, waiting for each day to end. “At some point I thought, This can’t be how my life is going to go. This isn’t for me,” she recalls. “I’m not a person…

When Icons Play Icons There’s a special thrill in profiling Hollywood legends whose careers have spanned decades, but when one of them plays another icon, as was the case with our April cover star Jessica Lange, the rewards are doubly rich. Lange plays Joan Crawford in Ryan Murphy’s FX series Feud: Betty & Joan, and it wasn’t much of a stretch to have the Oscar winner channel Crawford’s old Hollywood glamour in Ruven Afanador’s photography. Speaking to Murphy for the story, Lange reflected on her triumphs but also admitted to her blind spots, including the fact that she’s never seen the Crawford-inspired camp classic Mommie Dearest. Online, this drew some criticism about Lange’s character research, especially since that film showcased Crawford’s inner demon. “Joan was a sad alcoholic,” Anastasia Beverhousen…

Because they’re always on display (and hopefully frequently in demand), your lips need tender love and care. But using the wrong lip balm can lead to disaster—a dry, cracked mess nobody wants to kiss (or double tap). The hot, impending rays will only make matters worse. Luckily, our expert is here to help. Below, Dr. Kristina Goldenberg, one half of Goldenberg Dermatology in New York, answers five questions on all of our lips. I’VE TRIED ALL SORTS OF LIP BALMS, BUT MY LIPS ARE ALWAYS DRY. WHAT’S WRONG WITH ME? In dermatology circles, lip dryness is referred to as “lip licker dermatitis,” a not-so-fancy term for a very common condition. “A lot of people don’t realize they have that habit of licking their lips,” Goldenberg says. “Our saliva has enzymes…

1: CALLING ROMANTICS Jane Austen died too young, at 41, but left behind a literary treasure trove that continues to delight audiences today. The 200th anniversary of her death is being marked all year, from The Mysterious Miss Austen, a landmark exhibition at Jane Austen’s House Museum in Winchester (the city where she is buried), that runs until July 24, to a rare opportunity to walk in Austen’s footsteps when her beloved village and home, Chawton in Hampshire, opens its gardens (June 10 and 11). And don’t miss out on the glorious city of Bath, which is hosting a Jane Austen Festival in September. Find more information at JaneAusten200.co.uk. 2: HARRY POTTER IS 20 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was published in 1997, and to mark the 20th anniversary…

“How dare you call me a racist!” Karen once screeched. “A homophobe? Maybe. Distrustful of Spaniards? Who isn’t?! But nobody calls me a racist. And you can ask anyone I own.” VORACIOUS QUEENS across this soon-to-be-great-again nation were titillated at the prospect of a revival of Will & Grace, the much-loved sitcom that was groundbreaking for having two gay men as regular characters, one of them as the lead. In a post-Glee, post-Looking, post–Titus Andromedon world, that doesn’t seem like such a big deal, but when Will & Grace premiered in 1998, it was huge. Ellen had been canceled a year earlier, following a decline in the show’s popularity after the titular heroine came out as a lesbian. The timing for Will & Grace was perfect then, and it’s perfect…

“I had a lot of lesbians say to me, ‘You’re the straightest lesbian I’ve ever met.’ Like, ‘Jill, you’re queer. What are you doing?’ People were always trying to out me to myself.” JILL SOLOWAY’S GROUNDBREAKING Amazon hit Transparent is a shrewd, affecting portrait of a transgender woman who comes out to her family at the age of 68. But the show, which has won Soloway two consecutive Emmys for best directing for a comedy series, has been more than a revelation for its viewers—it has completely reshaped its creator’s own perspectives on gender. “I look at people who don’t identify as either male or female as the future of the future of the trans movement,” says Soloway, whose own father came out as a trans woman in 2012. “There…

WHAT DOES IT MEAN to be punk in these turbulent times? If you’re Ben Hopkins and Liv Bruce, the New York duo known as PWR BTTM, it means slipping on a flowery dress, reaching for the lipstick, and throwing caution—and a shit ton of glitter—to the wind. It also means crafting sly, infectious, heartfelt anthems about otherness, confidence, and that dick who won’t answer your text. On their new album, Pageant, the former dance and theater majors preach the gospel of the self, and the thrill of its mutability—both identify as queer, and Bruce also identifies as nonbinary and transfeminine. PWR BTTM’s impassioned pleas for self-love echo the incendiary war cries of Priests, the Washington, D.C.–based punk outfit made up of queer singer Katie Alice Greer, drummer Daniele Daniele, trans…

“We’re still somewhat segregating ourselves. I’ve even been profiled by a black police officer.” “I THINK IT’S A GREAT TIME for ethnicity,” says DeRon Horton, who plays the gay lead character Lionel Higgins on Netflix’s new series Dear White People, based on Justin Simien’s acclaimed 2014 film of the same name. “I think it’s a great time for us to express ourselves through art. When there’s controversy, we feel the need to come together. A lot of people want to speak up.” When Simien’s movie was released three years ago, our divided America was still lurking under a politically correct veil, but the film dared to defy the notion of a post-racial Obama era. Dear White People was vital then, and its TV adaptation is perhaps more vital now, especially…

We’ve sung the praises of the scanty swim brief, and we’ve definitely had it with the dowdy board short. But this season isn’t so much about the fit and length of your suit as it is its personality—by which we mean go big or go home. A funky printed trunk works for all body types and allows even the most bashful guy to show he’s up for a good time. Styles range from the adorably kitsch (H&M’s poppy watermelons) to retro chic (Ralph Lauren’s meta beach scenes) to goth lite (Dior and Japanese artist Toru Kamei’s skull-and-flowers combo). Grab whatever pair speaks to you, head for the sand, and never look back.…

Welch proves unusual among British authors of his day, wanting in part to shock, announcing his longing to gaze on the male physique. I WAS IN MY LATE ADOLESCENCE, studying English literature and beginning to try to write in earnest, when I was given one of Denton Welch’s books. The cover would not have pulled me in. It was one of the author’s paintings, two full male forms stripped to bathe in a river, and seen from the back, one relaxed on the bank, another pulling himself out. It was placed in my hands by one of the most beautiful men I have ever known, a mentor to me. Why not read the man who had inspired William Burroughs, the author to whom Burroughs dedicated his book The Place of…

It questions the conventional social authority that often oppresses those who, like gay, naive Fox, go through life unaware that they lack social power. RAINER WERNER FASSBINDER, the most prolific major gay director of the past half-century—44 films from 1965 to 1982—made only three with gay protagonists. The most accessible of them is Fox and His Friends (1975), in which Fassbinder played the leading role. As the carnival performer Fox (the nickname, a diminutive for Franz, is appliquéd in studs on the back of his denim jacket), Fassbinder portrayed an unsophisticated working-class man with a cute bum and zero sophistication. In this sexy, tragic narrative, Fox wins the German lottery but then loses everything in an exploitative relationship with a social-climbing lover, Eugen (a mustachioed Peter Chatel), who swindles him…

JANET MOCK AND ELLEN PAGE have a lot in common. For starters, they’re both woke women who use their platforms to shed a powerful beam of light on issues affecting the LGBTQ communities—whether it’s Mock’s advocacy for trans women’s rights or producing the HBO documentary The Trans List, or Page’s queer travel series Gaycation on Viceland, or projects near and dear to her heart, like the movie Freeheld with Julianne Moore. They also know what it’s like to be on the business end of a media frenzy over comments made to and about them by zealous conservatives. Here, Mock and Page discuss self-actualization, the challenges of being in the media, and and tackling those tough viral moments. Ellen Page: I finished your book Surpassing Certainty this morning. I feel so,…
