Eva Le Gallienne, Alice Delamar, Marion Evensen & Margaret Webster

Alice Antoinette Delamar (New York April23, 1895 - Norwalk Conn. August 31, 1983), daughter of Joseph Rafael de la Mar and Nellie Sands, was a Colorado mine heiress, one of America's youngest and richest heiresses. Alice remained unmarried and had no children. She had a half sister, Consuela, from the marriage of her mother with James Hatmaker. She was Eva Le Gallienne's lover and financial supported: disillusioned by the state of commercial theatre in the 1920s, Le Gallienne founded the Civic Repertory Theatre in the former Fourteenth Street Theatre in Manhattan, New York. financially backed by Alice, whose support was instrumental in the success of the repertory theatre movement in the U.S.

Alice was born on Madison Avenue 109, but already the following year she moved with her parents to Paris. Joseph and Nellie divorced in 1898 and Alice went with her father back to New York.

When Joseph was away traveling, he placed Alice in the famous Sherry Netherlands Hotel in New York. She received postcards from her father from all over the world. Sometimes she traveled along with Joseph.

"My parents divorced when I was 2 years old. We lived in Paris and I was on the weekends with my mother and the rest of the week with my father. When I was 5 years old, we moved back to New York and I saw my mother again only when I was 15. I was very bad with my dad along, was rebellious and my education was neglected. My godfather, Uncle Nelson Cromwell, was a lawyer for Spence School and he sent me to that school for girls when I was 12 years old. It changed my life and brought me, for the first time since my fifth year, a sense of security. I suddenly had two allies: Mr. Cromwell and the head teacher of the school. She stood behind me and helped me spend the summer of my fifteenth year with my mother in Paris." (Letter to Alexandra Alice Taylor)


Alice DeLamar was a Colorado mine heiress. Alice was Eva Le Gallienne's lover: Le Gallienne founded the Civic Repertory Theatre in the former Fourteenth Street Theatre in Manhattan, financially backed by Alice. When Alice died, she had no arrangement for what was to happen afterwards. Nobody did anything, and her black chauffeur, Charles Edwards, carried her urn to the Royal Palm Memorial Gardens in Palm Beach, because his girlfriend was working there in the funeral home, and so Alice is buried in an all-black cemetery.

Eva Le Gallienne (January 11, 1899 – June 3, 1991) was a theatrical actress, producer, and director during the first half of the 20th century. In the late 1950s she enjoyed great success playing the role of Queen Elizabeth in Mary Stuart, an off-Broadway production. In 1934 she met actress Marion Evensen (September 29, 1891 - September 1971), who became her partner of 37 years sharing her house in Westport, Fairfield, Connecticut.

In the late 1930s Le Gallienne became involved in a relationship with theater director Margaret Webster, nevertheless maintaining her relationship with Marion Evensen. When they were in New York City, Le Gallienne and Webster shared Webster's apartment, when they were in Connecticut, all three of them lived in Le Gallienne's house. She, Webster, and producer Cheryl Crawford later co-founded the American Repertory Theater, which operated from 1946 to 1948. The relationship with Webster ended in 1948 and in the following years she lived with Marion Evensen. At the death of Evensen in 1971, Le Gallienne was devastated, and it did non help that also Webster died just one year later.

Le Gallienne was born in London to an English poet of French descent, Richard Le Gallienne, and a Danish journalist, Julie Norregard. After Eva's parents separated when she was three years old, she spent her childhood shuttling back and forth between Paris and England. She made her stage debut at the age of 15 in a 1914 production of Maurice Maeterlinck's Monna Vanna.

Days of Love chronicles more than 700 LGBT couples throughout history, spanning 2000 years from Alexander the Great to the most recent winner of a Lambda Literary Award. Many of the contemporary couples share their stories on how they met and fell in love, as well as photos from when they married or of their families. Included are professional portraits by Robert Giard and Stathis Orphanos, paintings by John Singer Sargent and Giovanni Boldini, and photographs by Frances Benjamin Johnson, Arnold Genthe, and Carl Van Vechten among others. “It's wonderful. Laying it out chronologically is inspired, offering a solid GLBT history. I kept learning things. I love the decision to include couples broken by death. It makes clear how important love is, as well as showing what people have been through. The layout and photos look terrific.” Christopher Bram “I couldn’t resist clicking through every page. I never realized the scope of the book would cover centuries! I know that it will be hugely validating to young, newly-emerging LGBT kids and be reassured that they really can have a secure, respected place in the world as their futures unfold.” Howard Cruse “This international history-and-photo book, featuring 100s of detailed bios of some of the most forward-moving gay persons in history, is sure to be one of those bestsellers that gay folk will enjoy for years to come as reference and research that is filled with facts and fun.” Jack Fritscher

Howard Greenfield & Tory Damon

Howard Greenfield (March 15, 1936 – March 4, 1986) was an American lyricist and songwriter, who for several years in the 1960s worked out of the famous Brill Building. He is best known for his series of successful songwriting collaborations, including one with Neil Sedaka from the late 1950s to the mid-1970s, and a near-simultaneous (and equally successful) songwriting partnership with Jack Keller throughout most of the 1960s.

Greenfield was openly gay, even though during the era in which he lived it was unusual to be open about this. Being openly gay was, however, not entirely uncommon amongst people in the entertainment industry who worked outside the public eye. His companion from the early 1960s to his death was cabaret singer Tory Damon (Sep. 29, 1939 - Mar. 30, 1986); the two lived together in an apartment on East 63rd Street in Manhattan before moving to California in 1966. Greenfield died, aged 49, in Los Angeles, California in 1986 from complications due to AIDS. He was interred at Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills). Damon died from AIDS complications just a few days later. Tory Damon died just 26 days after Greenfield and is interred in the wall crypt to his right. Damon's epitaph reads: Love Will Keep Us Together..., Greenfield's continues: ... Forever.

Greenfield co-wrote four songs that reached #1 on the US Billboard charts: "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do", as recorded by Neil Sedaka; "Everybody's Somebody's Fool" and "Breakin' in a Brand New Broken Heart", both as recorded by Connie Francis, and "Love Will Keep Us Together", as recorded by The Captain & Tennille. He also co-wrote numerous other top 10 hits for Neil Sedaka (including "Oh! Carol", "Stairway to Heaven", "Calendar Girl", "Little Devil", "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen", and "Next Door to an Angel"); Connie Francis (including the "Theme to Where The Boys Are" and "My Heart Has a Mind of Its Own"); The Everly Brothers ("Crying In The Rain"); Jimmy Clanton ("Venus In Blue Jeans") and The Shirelles ("Foolish Little Girl"). As well, Greenfield co-wrote the theme songs to numerous 1960s TV series, including Gidget, Bewitched, The Flying Nun and Hazel.

Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen & Nino Cesarini

Baron Jacques d'Adelswärd-Fersen (February 20, 1880 – November 5, 1923) was a novelist and poet of the early 20th century; his modern fame is based on a mid-century fictionalised biography by Roger Peyrefitte. (Picture: Jacques d'Adelsward-Fersen in 1901)

In 1903 a scandal involving Parisian schoolboys made him persona non grata in the salons of Paris and dashed his marriage plans, after which he took up residence in Capri with his longtime lover, Nino Cesarini (September 29, 1889 – October 25, 1943). He became one of the many "characters" of the island in the interwar years, featuring in novels by Compton MacKenzie others. His home, the Villa Fersen, remains one of Capri's major tourist attractions.

Born in Paris, France as Jacques d'Adelswärd, he is related on his paternal side to Axel von Fersen, a Swedish Count who had a relationship with Marie Antoinette. D'Adelswärd took on the name Fersen later in his life out of admiration for the distant relative. 

(Picture: Nino Cesarini's Portrait by Paul Hoecker)

D'Adelswärd-Fersen's grandfather had founded the steel industry in Longwy-Briey, which was profitable enough that it made d'Adelswärd-Fersen exceedingly wealthy when he inherited at age 22. Consequently, he was much sought-after in the higher circles, as families hoped to marry him to one of their daughters.

Apart from joining the military, d'Adelswärd-Fersen already traveled extensively and settled down as a writer. He published several volumes of poems, for instance Chansons Légères, and novels.

Nobody could be impartial enough.

At first I'm not even supposed to tell anyone about us.

He said that way it would be easier. Just tell everyone we're good friends.

Then I feel like I can't trust anyone. Like I have no friends I can talk to about my life. I get another job, one I wear headphones at listening to a tape of songs over and over, a loop of new, not his, anything but his, those words he pens that give him means to enter greater worlds.

Wesley Gibson by Robert Giard

American photographer Robert Giard is renowned for his portraits of American poets and writers; his particular focus was on gay and lesbian writers. Some of his photographs of the American gay and lesbian literary community appear in his groundbreaking book Particular Voices: Portraits of Gay and Lesbian Writers, published by MIT Press in 1997. Giard’s stated mission was to define the literary history and cultural identity of gays and lesbians for the mainstream of American society, which perceived them as disparate, marginal individuals possessing neither. In all, he photographed more than 600 writers. (http://beinecke.library.yale.edu/digitallibrary/giard.html)

Former screen idol, Roman Pasquale, struggles to survive in Hollywood as the silent film era comes to a close. But a fresh new playwright is in town and he wants Roman to be more than just his star. The past few years haven’t been kind to fading film star, Roman Pasquale. But then again, he was never very kind to anyone else either. He’s had time to reminisce on his mistakes and to accept responsibility for how he hurt others. Now that Global Studios has turned its back on him, he’s had to sell his grand estate and start over in a modest apartment. His former co-star, actress Maude Simons, suggests that he meet with new playwright, Max Vogel. Not only will he get the chance to be the star again, Roman can really use the money. What he doesn’t expect is how strongly he’s attracted to the easygoing, confident young man—and the very wicked thoughts he has about him. Playwright and director, Max Vogel, is delighted that the great Roman Pasquale has agreed to star in his play. What he was unprepared for however, was the intense physical spark that ignited the moment they met. He’s been warned of Roman’s reputation for being difficult to work with, but he’s willing to take the risk—even though his career depends on the success of this one play. Max needs to coax a heartfelt performance out of Roman, and Roman needs to live up to his resolve to be a better man. But maybe the real issue is whether or not the director and actor can resist the passion they have for one another, a lust so strong that it catches them unaware. Is their lust really love? Or will the drive for success destroy any hope for a happily-ever-after?
