Native
San Franciscan and feminist writer Dorothy Bryant
is the author
of 12 novels, two nonfiction works, and four plays. "A Day in San Francisco"
is Bryant's controversial mother-son take on gay life in the City on the
eve of the 1980 Gay Freedom Day Parade. Her 1986 novel "Confessions of
Madame Psyche" is so realistic in emotional truth and historic detail about
early 20th Century life in San Francisco and the Bay Area that most readers
forget this is a fictional work. Bryant, the daughter of northern Italian
immigrants, taught English and music in high schools and community colleges
for 23 years. She lives in Berkeley, where she and her husband run the
independent publishing company, Ata Books.
