Stu Levitan welcomes R. Richard (Dick) Wagner for a special Pride Month encore presentation of our conversation about his award-wining We've Been Here All Along: Wisconsin's Early Gay History, from our very good friends at the Wisconsin Historical Society Press. The book covers the period from territorial days to the 1960s; Dick's companion volume, Coming Out, Moving Forward: Wisconsin's Recent Gay History brings the story up to the present day. In 1982, under Republican Governor Lee Dreyfus, Wisconsin became the first state in the country to adopt a gay rights law, making discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation illegal. In 1983, under Democratic Governor Tony Earl, Wisconsin became the first state to have a Governor's Commission on Lesbian and Gay Issues. Wisconsin is the only state to have elected three openly gay members of Congress – 2 Democrats, 1 Republican. But the dairy state has not always been so friendly to non-normative sexuality. In fact, laws against gay sex predate the state. When the Wisconsin Territory was created in 1836, territorial legislators took the law against sodomy from the Michigan Territory and increased the penalty from three years to five. In 1905, the Wisconsin Attorney General called oral sex “this unspeakable offense,” ‘the infamous crime,' degrading and disgusting.” In 1928, the Supreme Court called sodomy “repulsive and detestable,” but “too prevalent to be ignored.” In the 1940s, Wisconsin criminalized even thinking gay, passing the Sexual Psychopath Law to prosecute people whose impulsiveness of behavior rendered them sexually irresponsible – whether or not they ever acted on those supposed impulses. Even that citadel of sifting and winnowing, the University of Wisconsin, got into the gay-bashing business, investigating hundreds of gay students in the fifties and early sixties, and sending many of them for therapeutic discipline. UW business manager A.W. Peterson even took the doors off the toilet stalls in the Bascom Hall men's rooms, to stop gay assignations. It's part of our state's history that most people, straight or gay, don't know, but should. Because a community cannot fully know itself, or be fully known by others, without knowing its history. As they say, you can't know where you're going if you don't know where you've been. There is no one more qualified or appropriate to write this groundbreaking history of early gay life in Wisconsin than Dick Wagner, who is himself historic, as the first openly gay member of the Dane County Board of Supervisors. He even lives in a landmarked building on Jenifer Street which long before he came to town was a center of Madison gay life. Dick came to Madison as a graduate student in history in 1965, getting his doctorate in 1971. In 1972, Gov. Pat Lucey named him executive director of the American Revolution Bicentennial Commission. After Lucey resigned in the summer of 1977 to become Ambassador to Mexico, Dick ran the executive residence for Gov. Martin Schreiber until January 1979, when he joined the Department of Administration as a budget analyst. Dick retired from state service in 2005. In addition to serving on the Dane County Board from 1980-1994 – including four years as the first openly gay county board chair in Wisconsin – Dick's record of state and local public service is extensive. In 1983, Gov. Tony Early appointed him co-chair of the aforementioned Governor's Council on Lesbian and Gay Issues. That same year, he co-founded the New Harvest Foundation, a funding source for south central Wisconsin's LGBT communities. Dick stepped down last year as chair of the Madison Urban Design Commission, following service on the Plan Commission, Landmarks Commission, Wisconsin Arts Board, Wisconsin Humanities Council, and numerous other organizations. In recognition not just of his service but the way he served, Dick was named the first recipient of the city of Madison's Jeffrey Clay Erlanger Civility in Public Discourse Award, in 2007. And on a personal note – I had the pleasure of serving with Dick on the Dane County Board and the Plan Commission, and there is no one whose intelligence, integrity and decency I respect more. It is a pleasure to welcome to Madison BookBeat my friend, Dick Wagner.

Stu Levitan welcomes UW Professor Emeritus Dennis Dresang, author Patrick J. Lucey:  A Lasting Legacy. It's the first biography of the late Governor of Wisconsin, and it's just out from our good friends at the Wisconsin Historical Society Press. Patrick Joseph Lucey was the great-grandson of an Irish immigrant who made his way from County Cork to western Wisconsin in 1862. One hundred years later, Pat Lucey was a trusted friend and advisor to the President of the United States, one of the founders of the Wisconsin Democrat Party, on his way to becoming an influential Governor, American Ambassador to Mexico, and candidate for Vice President. Pat Lucey died in 2014 at age 96. Who Pat Lucey was, and what he accomplished, is the business that occupies Dennis Dresang in this interesting and insightful account of a life well-led. Dennis Dresang is professor emeritus of public affairs and political science at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, former chair of its Department of Political Science and founding director of its La Follette School of Public Affairs. For his research and public service on pay equity for women, he received distinguished service awards from the Women's Political Caucus and the Wisconsin Equal Rights Council. In addition to this biography of Pat Lucey, he is the author of three books and numerous articles on politics, personnel management and public administration. And if all that were not enough, he is also a former Treasurer and VP of the Wisconsin Student Association, delegate to the National Student Association and in 1963 was crowned King of the Military Ball.  It is a pleasure to welcome to Madison BookBeat, my friend Dennis Dresang Airdate - Sept. 14, 2020

Stu Levitan welcomes R. Richard (Dick) Wagner, author of We've Been Here All Along: Wisconsin's Early Gay History, covering the period from territorial days to the 1960s. It's from our friends at the Wisconsin Historical Society Press, which in September will publish his companion volume, Coming Out, Moving Forward: Wisconsin's Recent Gay History. Some breaking news about volume one – it was just awarded the gold medal in the LGBT category by the Independent Publishers association.

In this show, I talk with Pat Lucey, CEO of ASPIRA and Vice President of PMI Ireland Chapter. I’ve known Pat for a few years via the PMI Ireland Chapter and I targeted him early as I knew he'd have a great story. I was right. :)During the conversation, Pat shares his story that started in Patricks Well in Limerick, where he worked in his father’s petrolgas station, before moving to University to study electrical engineering, after having to give up on his dream of being an astronaut when growing up!He talks about his part in the Berlin wall coming down while working in Germany in his first big role out of college. After returning to Ireland, he talks about his time in Motorola working with brick like Car phones before making a move into Project Management (by accident). After 17 years with Motorola, Pat explains, he took a chance and started up a business with a few colleagues becoming an 'accidental entrepreneur'.Now, almost 10 years later, ASPIRA is still going strong and has sold software to every corner of the world. Pat certainly learned lots of lessons along the way and was happy to share these during our conversation.Thanks again to Pat for his time and great story....Pat - sorry for the delay in releasing it to the world...it was worth the wait!Enjoy,Rob
