Jerry Pritikin aka The Bleacher Preacher: Chicago, IL, United States; I spent 23 years in Exile in San Francisco, from the early 1960s until the late 1980s. I was a freelance photographer and publicist specializing in one-of-a-kind clients and businesses. My photos have appeared in books, exhibits and documentaries. I have been involved in politics,sports and theater promotions. For over 25 years I was known as the "Bleacher Preacher" in and around the "Friendly Confines" of Chicago's Wrigley Field. At 76, I was inducted into the Chicago Senior Citizen Hall of Fame for my contributions to GLBT history in 2012.This year I was inducted into the National Gay Sports Hall of Fame. I am always available to talk about my involvement in sports,politics and photography. Please leave questions or contact information.
