Where does this guy come from? I've not seen him in any newspapers or on TV coverage of "gay rights". Wooyi 00:07, 28 May 2007 (EDT)

The WP entry on him may be incorrect on his birth date; I have a source says he was born in England in 1912. RobS 00:18, 28 May 2007 (EDT)
The birth date isn't an issue. The thing I don't understand is that both this and WP article describe this person as important in the "gay rights" movement, while he isn't really well-known, if comparing to the Human Rights Campaign guys and Barney Frank, among others.

As the article states, Harry Hay was active in the anti-War movement in 1950, soliciting gays to sign the Moscow directed Stockholm petition. And this after he left the CPUSA. So let's not limit his activism to gay rights. RobS 11:30, 29 May 2007 (EDT)
