Raymond-Jean Frontain, professor of English at UCA, delivered a lecture titled “Peter McGehee and the Erotics of Gay Self-Representation” at the University of Saskatchewan in conjunction with the establishment of the McGehee archives there. While on campus, Frontain introduced a university production of McGehee’s “Beyond Happiness” and led a “talk-back” with the audience following the performance. He was also interviewed on film for a documentary on McGehee being prepared for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC). Frontain’s research on MeGehee, who was born in Pine Bluff in 1955 and died of AIDS-related causes in Toronto at age 35, has been supported by a grant from the UCA University Research Council.
