Franklin E. Kameny, one of the nation's most prominent gay rights leaders, died in his home today apparently from natural causes. He was 86.

The death came less than a month before the planned celebration of the 50th anniversary of Kameny's founding of the Mattachine Society of Washington, the first gay rights organization in the nation's capital.
