About
2015 Gertrude Stein Officers
Every November, the Gertrude Stein Club elects officers responsible for the management, fundraising, and operations of the the organization. These officers constitute the Stein Club's Executive Committee, which helps facilitate membership activities including social and political events for Stein Club members and DC's broader community of LGBT Democrats.
The 2015 Stein Executive Committee represent both new and long time Stein members from across the District. Their vision for 2015 is to strengthen DC's voice for LGBT Democrats by expanding Stein's role in community advocacy, and ensuring that LGBT people are represented at all levels of DC government.
Our Namesake: Who was Gertrude Stein?

While living in Paris during World War II, Stein and Toklas aided the efforts of the Allies and French Resistance by operating as supply drivers for French hospitals.
