Mary Go-Round

By Ken Ludden

Book Overview

"Mary Go-Round" began as a serial publication in Michael's Weekly Entertainment Guide in Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD. The column became an instant success with a nearly cult following in the alternative, LGBT communities on the east coast of the United States. In time the column grew into screen play form and a pilot was shot on location in San Francisco, using the offices of then City Supervisor Gavin Newsom (later Mayor of San Francisco, and then Lt. Governor of California) for the Congressional scenes. The AIDS scare plot line from the story was later turned into the stage play "A Time Below" which was met with critical acclaim at the AIDS Theater Conference. This is a story of the clash of cultures: the old south of Knoxville, TN; insider Congressional Washington, DC and gay sub-culture. Ludden's point of view and vast life experience takes you into these worlds as nobody else can. This is the ride of a lifetime
