Honoring James Esseks

Read about James Esseks, our classmate, and the work he is doing for the LGBT community:

Every day is a day to celebrate James Esseks, director of the ACLU's Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender and AIDS Project. How could we not? He's wicked smart, strategic, organized and charming to boot.

But today there's even more reason to toot his horn. Last night, James was awarded the 2012 Community Vision Award from the LGBT Bar Association of Greater New York. It is an award presented annually "to honor individuals or organizations with a distinguished record of service to the LGBT community, including a sustained commitment to achieving equal rights for all members of the LGBT community." It makes us proud to see James recognized for what he is; a true leader in the effort to achieve equal rights for the LGBT community.

Honoring James Esseks
