Queer Places:

Seymour Kleinberg (May 1, 1933 - April 21, 2020) was a teacher, artist, and writer who attended City College New York and the University of Michigan. He spent most of his professional life teaching Shakespeare at Long Island University where his reputation as a brilliant teacher was established by at least two generations of students. He was also a talented visual artist and the last decade of his life was spent making dramatically beautiful prints and collages.

He was known among his friends and relatives for his wicked wit and a breathtakingly ironic slant on life accounted for in his 1980 collection of essays, "Alienated Affections: On Being Gay in America."
