Christopher Street was a gay-oriented magazine published in New York City, New York by Charles Ortleb. Known both for its serious discussion of issues within the gay community and its satire of anti-gay criticism, it was one of the two most widely read gay-issues publications in the United States.[1][2]Christopher Street covered politics and culture and its aim was to become a gay equivalent of The New Yorker.[3]


The magazine featured original fiction and non-fiction work from such notable authors as Andrew Holleran and John Preston, as well as emerging gay writers such as Christopher Bram, Allen Barnett, Scott Heim, John Alan Lee, Patrick Merla and Matthew Stadler. The cartoons signed (Rick) Fiala, Lublin, (Henryk) Baum, Bertram Dusk, Dean, and March were all drawn by Rick Fiala, the founding art director of Christopher Street.[4][5]


First published in July 1976, Christopher Street printed 231 issues before closing its doors in December 1995.
