Halfhill, Robert.

Biographical notes:

Robert Halfhill was born in Kentucky in 1942. He attended the University of Minnesota, where he completed an undergraduate degree in philosophy. While at the University, Halfhill became involved in the nascent and rapidly evolving gay rights movement in the Twin Cities. He wrote for several gay community papers and tried his hand at electoral politics. In 1978, and again in 1982 and 1984, he ran--unsuccessfully--for the 6th Ward Minneapolis Council seat. He served as treasurer for other politcal compaigns before becoming involved in the Minnesota chapter of ACT UP in the late 1980s.
