Affirmation: The AIDS Odyssey of Dr. Peter
by Daniel Gawthrop
Category: Biography & Autobiography

When Peter Jepsen-Young introduced himself to the dinner-hour TV news audience, nobody foresaw that his AIDS Diary would become a two-year, 111-episode series that would bring him worldwide recognition, including an Oscar nomination, as "Dr. Peter," the charming and articulate public educator on AIDS and gay rights. David Gawthrop interviewed Peter Jepsen-Young's family, friends, lovers, and colleagues, and in AFFIRMATION, he introduces readers to the man behind Dr. Peter. -- adapted from back cover
