"The personal side of AIDS
Three huge archives in Los Angeles and San Francisco echo with the voices of victims in photos, letters and journals available to scholars studying the human impact of the epidemic

Twelve years after a Los Angeles man died, his pharmacy receipts and medical bills sit in a Los Angeles archive with a hand-written message declaring: "The Cost of AIDS."

In a San Francisco library, a photo collection capturing the exuberance of gay liberation in the 1970s and its tragic collision with AIDS fills many cartons."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
