Shortly after his appotment, The Pla Dealer asked Harris for an terview regardg the crisis, sistg on referrg to him as a “homosexual” (as opposed to gay) nsultant, as was the newspaper’s policy at the time.

Regardls of the topic, which ranged om lol polics to the art scene and everythg between, Harris matas that “a good slice of gay culture” was served, often wh a si of humor.

The first half of the weekly two-hour program volved gut terviews, and there were notable on cludg, Harris’s words, “movers, shakers and founrs of the gay civil rights movement. Congrsman Barney Frank; gay rights activist Frank Kameny; two-time Grammy Award wng sger/songwrer Janis Ian, and four-time Tony award wng playwright Harvey Fierste. Arbron, the rad ratgs agency, timated that 20, 000 listeners tuned to The Gay 90s on a typil night – perhaps more on a clear night when the AM signal strength was strong enough to reach listeners as far away as Akron or Canton, maybe even the “boondocks, ” Harris quips.

From there, The Gay 90s aired on Sunday evengs – a time slot Harris preferred, believg that his target dience was more likely to be home (and tuned ), not partyg one of Cleveland’s many gay bars.

Not that he was opposed to gay bars – after all, he was a former bartenr at the lolly famo gay bar, Twiggy’s, and knew the bar’s value as a muny anchor. Seeg the opportuny and the need, Harris offered his voice as he opened the every show wh this greetg: “Good eveng Cleveland… Wele to The Gay 90s, the voice of Northeast Oh’s gay and lbian muny.
