Undercover Girl- The Fbi's Lesbian: A Note On Resources, Lisa E. Davis

Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)

Historical investigation is never easy, but deciphering gay and lesbian history often turns out to be more than usually convoluted. The players lead at least two lives—public and private — and secrets abound. Clues appear in unconventional sources, beyond the library and beyond theory.
