Gentges was born on February 12, 1918, in Farmington, Missouri. Prior to his enlistment in April of 1941, he worked as a laundry foreman who enjoyed classical music and writing. At the age of 23 the Selective Service Act of September 1940 required him to enlist. By April 1941 he was training at Camp Claiborne in Louisiana where he became a rifleman and staff sergeant for the Infantry's 113th Regiment in the 34th Infantry Division nicknamed \"Red Bull Division.\" From February 1942 to October 1944 he served in the European African Middle Eastern Theatre in the Tunisian Campaign, Rome-Arno campaign, and North Apennines Campaign. His service ended abruptly on October 19, 1944 in Cecina, Italy when he received a gunshot wound which broke his femur, for which he was awarded his third Purple Heart Medal. Aside from Purple Heart, Gentges was also awarded a Bronze Star Medal, 5 overseas service bars, one three-year service stripe, a combat infantry badge, an American defense service ribbon, and maintained good conduct throughout his service. The details of his service can be found in his memoir compiled by his daughter in 2001 and contained in the collection.\n \nIt is evident in Gentges memoirs, diary entries, and letters that he is a devout Catholic. He attended mass in both England and Ireland where he observed the Catholic/Protestant controversy and was particularly impressed with the religiosity of Ireland. When serving in Italy, he visited Rome twice where the Pope blessed his rosary. Later, Gentges became a member of the Society for the Propagation of Faith and wrote a letter to the society saying that he detested his destructive job, especially as a man of god, but understood his duty to his country. Gentges wrote \"at present I'm in the hospital with a battle injury. Soon I must return with rifle in hand to the job I detest. A man has a duty toward his country. Thus I attempt to do the best my poor abilities as a soldier will permit. Otherwise I leave everything else to whatever God wills\".  \n \nAfter officially leaving the service in August of 1945, Gentges married Florence Schwartz whom he had known since a youth on October 27, 1945 in their hometown of Farmington, Missouri. Beginning as childhood friends, Gentges admitted that once he had never had feelings for Florence, but through their letters during his service he realized his feelings for her. From then they were set to get married upon his return to the United States. Their relationship can be traced through their letters which have been copied and partially transcribed by their only daughter Mary Gentges. Charles R.

Notaro came to USF St. Petersburg as an openly gay librarian and has championed gay rights for decades.  As a board member of the ACLU of Pinellas County he worked to make sure that gay and lesbian issues were addressed.  He was the original advisor for the LGBTQ+ student organization at USF St. Petersburg.  Mr. Notaro helped found Camp Torreyea, a summer camp for LGBTQ+ youth and created a support group within the Florida Library Association that works to understand the needs of the LGBTQ+ community in libraries. Mr. Notaro has participated in many gay pride events, including attending New York gay parade in 1979 that commemorated the tenth anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.  He also took part in the first gay pride parade in Pinellas County in 1989 at William Park that had only about 50 people in attendance. He was a member of St. Petersburg Pride from its beginning in 2003 and served on the organization's board of directors for two years and as the secretary and archivist for two years.","St. Pete Pride is an annual gay pride event that occurs every June that culminates with a parade and street festival in St. Petersburg's Kenwood neighborhood and Grand Central District.  St. Pete Pride began in 2003 as another gay pride organization, Greater Tampa Bay Pride, began to falter.  St. Pete Pride wanted to focus on promoting the gay and lesbian community in St. Petersburg and Pinellas County that had been underserved by the Greater Tampa Bay Pride organization.  The event also gained more support and prominence when the Hillsborough County Commission passed a controversial resolution prohibiting that county on the eastern side of Tampa Bay from recognizing or acknowledging gay pride in any way, including displays in public libraries. ","The size of the event has grown significantly from its beginnings in 2003. The inaugural parade had an estimated 10,000 attendees while the crowd estimates for the parades since 2009 have been over 80,000.  St. Pete Pride is the largest city sponsored event of the year, larger than Martin Luther King Jr., Day and the annual Opening Day celebration of the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team at Tropicana Field.  It is the largest gay pride event in the state of Florida and the largest event in the South outside Atlanta. The size of the parade itself has also grown over the years.  At its beginning it took less than fifteen minutes for the parade to reach its end, while in 2011 it took over four hours.","Although the size and scope of St. Pete Pride has changed since its beginning in 2003, this event has retained much of its original character.  It remains free to all attendees in order encourage those for\nwhom fees might be a roadblock to participate and it takes place in a neighborhood that has been supportive of the LGBT community for years.","Perceptions of St. Pete Pride by the local community and government have also evolved since 2003. Sponsorship has shifted increasingly from local businesses to a large number of national sponsors, which have included Macys, Wells‐Fargo, Coca Cola, and Jet Blue.  While the event has always received warm support from the St. Petersburg City Council and the city government, it has only recently received any acknowledgement from the Mayor's office.  While former Mayor Rick Baker's attitude towards St. Pete Pride could be described as \"silently non‐supportive,\" Mayor Bill Foster has given greater attention to St. Pete Pride and the gay community. Although, like his predecessor, Foster refused to sign the city council proclamation recognizing St. Pete Pride, he did attend the reading of the proclamation and some of the ancillary events related to parade.","As evidence of St. Pete Pride's growth in importance and size, it has become an important driver of tourism among the gay and lesbian community at the international level.  The parade has made St. Petersburg into a tourist destination for the LGBT community.  Hotels catering to the LGBT community become fully booked during the three days surrounding the parade","Materials include St. Petersburg Pride event ephemera, photographic prints and negatives, commemorative items, promotional pamphelets and posters from the early 2000s. This annual event is in the Grand Central District and has grown into one of the largest LGBTQ+ celebrations in the southeastern United States.","None.

Notaro came to USF St. Petersburg as an openly gay librarian and has championed gay rights for decades.  As a board member of the ACLU of Pinellas County he worked to make sure that gay and lesbian issues were addressed.  He was the original advisor for the LGBTQ+ student organization at USF St. Petersburg.  Mr. Notaro helped found Camp Torreyea, a summer camp for LGBTQ+ youth and created a support group within the Florida Library Association that works to understand the needs of the LGBTQ+ community in libraries. Mr. Notaro has participated in many gay pride events, including attending New York gay parade in 1979 that commemorated the tenth anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.  He also took part in the first gay pride parade in Pinellas County in 1989 at William Park that had only about 50 people in attendance. He was a member of St. Petersburg Pride from its beginning in 2003 and served on the organization's board of directors for two years and as the secretary and archivist for two years.","St. Pete Pride is an annual gay pride event that occurs every June that culminates with a parade and street festival in St. Petersburg's Kenwood neighborhood and Grand Central District.  St. Pete Pride began in 2003 as another gay pride organization, Greater Tampa Bay Pride, began to falter.  St. Pete Pride wanted to focus on promoting the gay and lesbian community in St. Petersburg and Pinellas County that had been underserved by the Greater Tampa Bay Pride organization.  The event also gained more support and prominence when the Hillsborough County Commission passed a controversial resolution prohibiting that county on the eastern side of Tampa Bay from recognizing or acknowledging gay pride in any way, including displays in public libraries. ","The size of the event has grown significantly from its beginnings in 2003. The inaugural parade had an estimated 10,000 attendees while the crowd estimates for the parades since 2009 have been over 80,000.  St. Pete Pride is the largest city sponsored event of the year, larger than Martin Luther King Jr., Day and the annual Opening Day celebration of the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team at Tropicana Field.  It is the largest gay pride event in the state of Florida and the largest event in the South outside Atlanta. The size of the parade itself has also grown over the years.  At its beginning it took less than fifteen minutes for the parade to reach its end, while in 2011 it took over four hours.","Although the size and scope of St. Pete Pride has changed since its beginning in 2003, this event has retained much of its original character.  It remains free to all attendees in order encourage those for\nwhom fees might be a roadblock to participate and it takes place in a neighborhood that has been supportive of the LGBT community for years.","Perceptions of St. Pete Pride by the local community and government have also evolved since 2003. Sponsorship has shifted increasingly from local businesses to a large number of national sponsors, which have included Macys, Wells‐Fargo, Coca Cola, and Jet Blue.  While the event has always received warm support from the St. Petersburg City Council and the city government, it has only recently received any acknowledgement from the Mayor's office.  While former Mayor Rick Baker's attitude towards St. Pete Pride could be described as \"silently non‐supportive,\" Mayor Bill Foster has given greater attention to St. Pete Pride and the gay community. Although, like his predecessor, Foster refused to sign the city council proclamation recognizing St. Pete Pride, he did attend the reading of the proclamation and some of the ancillary events related to parade.","As evidence of St. Pete Pride's growth in importance and size, it has become an important driver of tourism among the gay and lesbian community at the international level.

In the 1990s, Brown created \"Florida's Lost Tourist Attractions,\" or Lostparks.com, a website dedicated to documenting the many attractions that sprang up and later fell by the wayside following the opening of Walt Disney World. Of his work on the website, Brown writes, \"Tourist attractions have a way of springing up on the Florida roadside... only to wither and die when they just can't quite sustain the magic. You will find no historical marker to mark their passing, no footnote in the history book, only the occasional exotic plant, or shopping center, or oddly named road.\" His research for the website led him to collect thousands of brochures, postcards, flyers, and other ephemera detailing Florida tourism.  ","In 1997, Brown created a travel website for The Mining Company (later known as About.com or Dotdash), a digital media company, writing about theme parks around the world and the amusement park industry. As a result, he also collected materials from attractions located across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany. Brown worked as an actor in film, television, and theater productions.
