ABOUT ALLAN'S WORK
Allan Bérubé is an independent scholar and a social historian of minority movements.
Bérubé’s historical projects pay close attention to the experiences of working-class people and to the intersections of politics, cultural expectations, work conditions, and gender roles in their lives. His book, Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War II (1990), is based on oral-history interviews, declassified government documents, letters, and diaries. Bérubé’s ongoing project is an oral history and analysis of the Marine Cooks’ and Stewards’ Union, which organized the service workers on the passenger liners and freighters in the Pacific, and which was among the most democratic, multiracial, and pro-gay unions in the United States.
BIOGRAPHY
Bérubé was the historian and co-writer for the documentary film, Coming Out Under Fire (1994), a film directed by Arthur Dong. He has been a visiting lecturer at the University of California, Santa Cruz and Stanford University and is a contributor to the Advocate, Mother Jones, the Body Politic, and Out/Look, for which he also served as editor. His essay “How Gay Stays White and What Kind of White It Stays” appears in the Rasmussen et al. ed., The Making and Unmaking of Whiteness (2001).
Bérubé studied at the University of Chicago (1964-68) and the City College of San Francisco.
