Jack and Jim : a personal journal of the 70's In January 1970, Jim Brogan (1941-), a young college professor at San Francisco State University (SFSU), is about to be fired for participating in strike action. He is considering going back into therapy and thinks 1970 might be the year he finds love. By December, he has a permanent post. In August 1972, he meets the handsome Jack, and they begin seeing each other. These diaries, revised for publication by an extensive ensemble of Brogan’s friends, cover the decade up to 1981. They are a remarkable chronicle of long-term love and an ongoing search for personal, sexual and spiritual fulfilment. Brogan taught SFSU’s first lesbian and gay studies course and, with husband Jack Post, established three scholarships for the study and teaching of literature and sexuality.
