We are pleased to announce this year's honored guest and speaker:
Scott Bane
Scott Bane's new book, A Union Like Ours: The Love Story of F.O. Matthiessen and Russell Cheney, follows the private lives and public careers of Matthiessen, who was a Harvard professor, scholar, and activist (and for whom Harvard's F.O. Matthiessen Visiting Professorship of Gender and Sexuality is named), and Cheney, a well-regarded artist, over the expanse of decades.
Scott Bane grew up not ten miles from where F. O. Matthiessen and Russell Cheney made their home in Maine. After reading about the two men in the New York Times, Scott began researching their life together, leading him to libraries, archives, and historical societies throughout New England and the Northeast. Scott’s essays, fiction, and journalism have appeared in a number of print and online publications, including The New England Journal of History, The Gay & Lesbian Review, and Poets & Writers, among many others. He lives in New York City with his spouse, David W. Dunlap and is a program officer at The John A. Hartford Foundation.
