Visual Materials

The Visual Materials series consists of 3/4" U-matic videocassette tapes. Most of the tapes are locally produced for cable television. The Lambda Digest is a thirty-minute newsmagazine which covered items in the local and national news of interest to the gay and lesbian community. Other items in the series are interviews with members of local and national gay and lesbian organizations; as well as one tape of a public service announcement by the actress Amanda Bearse, which she made for National Coming Out Day (1994). This series covers the period 1989 to 1994, although a few tapes are undated. The tapes are in good condition. There is no indication that these tapes were produced or funded by the Triangle Foundation.
