LinkThe Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Religious Archives Network (LGBT-RAN) honors Dr. Kathryn Lofton as the 2006-07 recipient of its LGBT Religious History Award.
The LGBT Religious Archives Network created this award in order to promote scholarship in LGBT studies in religious history. This History Award was first given in 2005, thus making Dr. Lofton its second recipient. Dr. Lofton will receive the LGBT Religious History Award and its cash prize at a dinner later this spring.
"LGBT-RAN is pleased to be able to recognize outstanding scholarship in this emerging field of LGBT religious history," noted LGBT-RAN coordinator Mark Bowman. "The jury members chose Dr. Sauer's work from among the many fine papers they reviewed – for its radical interpretation, analysis and solid presentation. Overall we were very impressed by the caliber and breadth of scholars submitting papers for this award."
