good company.  Bravo!"
  -- Steve Stewart, author of Full-Frontal

and incredibly personal information!"

virtual gay pride extravaganza, Karvoski's
Award-Winning Men honors the unique, unsung
heroes of our community."
  -- Meryl Cohn, author of Do What I Say

'Academy,' but from the journey of life."

Award-Winning Men, a very entertaining read.  Bravo to Ed Karvoski Jr. for documenting these
men and their achievements.  My question: When is the next installment?"

> "Ed Karvoski Jr. has come up with a rather novel idea in Award-Winning Men. ... Explorations
through the history of gay America are bountiful, but this one brings home each spirit to make
it more personal."

It's a guy thing!
Get the inside scoop from numerous titleholders, such as Mr. International Gay Rodeo Association,
Mr. Ebony Leather, Mr. Gay Asian Pacific Alliance, Mr. Gay Wisconsin All-American, and the Emperor
of San Francisco's Imperial Court.  Other award-winners include singers, comedians, filmmakers,
authors, adult entertainment performers, humanitarians, and everyday activists. A unique opportunity
to meet the recipients of a wide array of accolades -- ranging from a fun nod for Best Buns from Gay
Naturists International to Broadway's coveted Tony Award!
Learn about the American Leatherboy who ran for a state Senate seat.  And the Mr. New York City
Bear who appeared on VH1's
Behind the Music.  And the openly gay actor who had a day named in
his honor by a city mayor.  And the athlete in his 60s who won 17 medals at Gay Games.  These
are just a few of the 48 intriguing gentlemen, from coast to coast, profiled and photographed in
Award-Winning Men: Up Close and Personal with Gay Honorees.
