The Gay & Lesbian Review Worldwide
''The Gay & Lesbian Review Worldwide'' is a bimonthly, nationally distributed magazine of history, culture, and politics for LGBT people and their allies who are interested in the gamut of social, scientific, and cultural issues raised by same-sex sexuality. Library Journal (in its July 1995 issue) described it as “the journal of record for LGBT issues.” Currently, ''The G&LR'' has a circulation of 11,000.
== History ==
''The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review'' was founded by Dr. Richard Schneider Jr. in 1993 as an offshoot of ''The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Newsletter'', a publication serving (Harvard University's GLBT alumni group ) that Dr. Schneider edited (1987–1995). (Dr. Schneider took a doctorate in sociology at Harvard in the early 1980s.) The original goal was to provide a vehicle for publishing gay-related talks given at Harvard University. One such talk was that of novelist Andrew Holleran, who agreed to the publication of his 1992 address, “My Harvard,” a recollection of his undergraduate years—but only if the 8,000-word entry were published in its entirety. This called for a new vehicle, and the idea for a supplementary publication was born.
At the same time, the supply of serious GLBT publications was dwindling. ''Christopher Street'', a venerable literary journal, was in decline, as was Boston-based ''Gay Community News''. A magazine called ''Out/Look'' had come and gone. ''The Advocate'', once an eclectic grab-bag of news, literary pieces, and political agitprop, was becoming a newsmagazine with a focus on politics and celebrities, going to a slick format ostensibly to compete with the newly founded Out and Genre magazines. But a void existed when it came to serious, in-depth discussion of GLBT history and culture, which Dr. Schneider set out to fill with ''The Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review'', whose first quarterly issue came out in Winter 1994.
Initially published by the Harvard Gay & Lesbian Caucus, in 1996 the magazine was organized as a 501(c)(3) educational corporation. In 2000, the magazine’s name was changed to ''The Gay & Lesbian Review Worldwide'' to reflect its independent status, and in 2001 the Review started to publish on a bimonthly basis.
