This sprawling, unique visual history of New York City’s queer spaces documents the evolution of LGBTQ+ culture, community, and activism within Manhattan’s dynamic landscape over the course of a century, spanning from 1920 to 2020. Featuring over 400 works by artists and photographers including Bill Bernstein, Tina Paul, and Linda Simpson, Queer Happened Here celebrates the indelible relationship between people and place, honoring the transformative power of pride, unity, and love. The book's foreword was written by Peppermint, the iconic drag performer, NYC nightlife staple, and trailblazer who made history in 2018 as the first out transgender woman to originate a principal role in a Broadway musical.
