Biographical / Historical
The Changing Men Collections grew from an initial donation by Art Stawinski in 1990 of materials by the National Organization for Changing Men (NOCM) and grew to incorporate material on father's rights, mythopoetic men's movement, and the National Organization for Men Against Sexism (NOMAS). Other organizations represented include the Chicago Men's Gathering, National Conferences on Men and Masculinity, Berkeley Men's Center, Men Sharing (Boston), Knoxville Men's Resource Center, The Nuturant Male, and Vietnam Vets Against the War, as well as documentation on the Radical Faeries. Edward Read Barton became volunteer curator of the Changing Men Collections in 1991 until 2016.
