abstract
{"value"=>"Jonathan Ned Katz (1938 - ) is an independent historian, author, LGBTQ rights advocate, teacher, and textile designer. His father, Bernard Katz (1901-1970), an artist and designer who worked in advertising, was an independent historian of African-American history and jazz music. Jonathan Katz's mother, Phyllis Brownstone Katz, was a magazine editor and co-founder of the Jane Street Community Garden. The Jonathan Ned Katz papers reflect his life and career as an historian, author, LGBTQ rights advocate, teacher, and textile designer. They most heavily document Katz's research and writings on LGBTQ history and activism, and encompass his personal life, family, friends, and the LGBTQ liberation movement. The collection also contains the papers of his parents, Bernard Katz and Phyllis Brownstone Katz."}

bioghist
{"value"=>"<p>Jonathan Ned Katz (1938 - ), an author, playwright, historian, teacher, gay rights advocate, and textile designer, was born in New York City, His father, Bernard Katz (1902-1970), was an advertising executive and independent scholar, and his mother, Phyllis Brownstone Katz, a magazine editor. His grandfather on his mother's side, Abraham Brownstone, emigrated to Canada in 1888 at age fifteen from his native Bessarabia (Russia).</p> <p>Raised in New York City in Greenwich Village at 81 Jane Street, Jonathan Katz graduated in 1956 from the High School of Music and Art. During his senior year, he directed a musical revue and variety show (\"Going...Going...Gone\") which was staged by members of the graduating class. After high school, Katz attended Antioch College (1956-1957), the College of the City of New York (1957-1960), and the New School (1961-1962), but never took an academic degree.</p> <p>During the 1960s, Katz was employed in New York City as a free-lance textile designer at the Prince Studio (1960-1965), New Group, Inc. (1965-1970) and at Henry Glass, Inc. (1970-1972, 1976). In later years, he held positions in development and publications at Scholastic, Inc. (1982-1984), the Center for Constitutional Rights (1984-1986), and the American Civil Liberties Union (1989-1990).</p> <p>Katz's writing career began in 1967 with the production of two documentary plays about fugitive slaves, <span class=\"title\">Inquest at Christiana</span> and <span class=\"title\">The Dispute Over the Ownership of Anthony Burns</span>. Both were broadcast over radio station WBAI-FM. He published two additional works in the field of Black studies: <span class=\"title\">Black Woman: A Fictionalized Biography of Lucy Terry Prince</span> (Pantheon, 1973), which he co-authored with his father; and <span class=\"title\">Resistance at Christiana: The Fugitive Slave Rebellion, Christiana, Pennsylvania, 1851</span> (T.Y. Crowell, 1974).</p> <p>A staunch advocate of gay rights, Katz became a founding member of the Gay Academic Union. In the 1970s and 1980s, he published a play (<span class=\"title\">Coming Out! A Documentary Play About Gay Life and Liberation</span> (Arno Press, 1975), and two ground-breaking books of historical research on gay history in the United States: <span class=\"title\">Gay American History: Lesbians and Gay Men in the U.S.A.</span> (T. Y. Crowell, 1976), and <span class=\"title\">Gay/Lesbian Almanac: A New Documentary</span> (Harper and Row, 1983). Both established Katz's reputation as one of America's leading authorities on homosexuality and LGBTQ history. Katz is also the author of <span class=\"title\">The Invention of Heterosexuality</span> (Dutton, 1995), <span class=\"title\">Love Stories: Sex Between Men Before Homosexuality</span> (University of Chicago Press, 2001), and <span class=\"title\">The Daring Life and Dangerous Times of Eve Adams</span> (Chicago Review Press, 2021). Katz created the website OutHistory.org in 2008.</p> <p>In addition to his major publications, Katz has contributed papers at conferences and published articles, reviews and essays on the subject of homosexuality, heterosexuality, and LGBTQ issues. In 1975, he was general editor of the Arno Press-New York Times reprint series on homosexuality. He has also been a guest lecturer on gay American history at several colleges and universities, including Yale, Princeton, and the University of Chicago; and has taught courses on gay and lesbian history at New York University and at the New School for Social Research (1991).</p> <p>Katz received several grants from philanthropic foundations, including the New York State Council on the Arts; the Louis M. Rabinowitz Foundation; and the Pennsylvania Humanities Council for the purpose of producing, in collaboration with the Philadelphia Lesbian and Gay Task Force, an educational documentary entitled <span class=\"title\">Words</span> which explored the changing terminology and concepts in the field of gay and lesbian history.</p> <p>Bernard Katz (1902-1970), an advertising art director and independent scholar, was raised in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. During one of his summer vacations from school he was employed as copy boy in the sports department of the <span class=\"title\">New York Sun</span>. At age eighteen, he edited and published (in Bensonhurst) a monthly scandal sheet entitled \"Ye Town Gossip\", which, although ephemeral, succeeded in attracting at least one literary contribution (a novelette) from the novelist Oscar Schisgal.</p> <p>Bernard Katz entered the advertising field as an artist and graphic designer. Following employment as a production manager at Namm's, and as an art director at Abraham and Straus, both leading department stores in New York City, Bernard Katz became advertising and promotion director of Hearns, a department store, in 1932. He left in 1950 to became art director of Fairfax, Inc., an advertising agency, where he remained until his retirement in 1968.</p> <p>Bernard Katz had a lifelong interest in African-American history and music. He compiled <span class=\"title\">The Social Implications of Early Negro Music in the United States</span> (Arno Press, 1969); and with his son, Jonathan Ned Katz, he co-authored <span class=\"title\">Black Woman: A Fictionalized Biography of Lucy Terry Prince</span> (Pantheon, 1973). He accumulated a large collection of sound recordings of American jazz and was an acknowledged authority on the subject. Bernard Katz served as script-writer and impresario for a series of jazz concerts held at Town Hall in New York City in the late 1940s. He was married to Phyllis Brownstone Katz, an editor of <span class=\"title\">Parents</span> magazine who co-founded the Jane Street Community Garden. Both of their sons became noted historians: Jonathan's brother, William Loren Katz, specialized in Black history.</p>"}
