Richard Parsakian has been a fixture in the Pittsburgh LGBTQ community for many years. He currently serves on the City of Pittsburgh LGBTQ Commission and was the Grand Marshal of the 2024 Pittsburgh Pride Parade.
On today’s podcast, Richard takes us back to queer Pittsburgh in 1972 — after-hours clubs celebrating queer community, first drag shows, and the birth of Pittsburgh queer life.
