Michael Warner in Paul Festa's Apparition of the Eternal Church
Michael Warner, professor of English at Yale University whose books include Publics and Counterpublics (2002) and The Trouble With Normal: Sex, Politics, and the Ethics of Queer Life (1999). He is the editor of American Sermons: The Pilgrims to Martin Luther King Jr. (1999), Fear of a Queer Planet: Queer Politics and Social Theory (1993), and The Portable Walt Whitman (2003).

Michael and I met at a spring gathering of the Radical Faeries. I subsequently screened a preliminary version of the movie at his Chelsea loft, before which I interviewed Elizabeth Povinelli and Texxxas Sage.
