Boasting the longest title in television history, "Out in America: In Their Own Words - A Moving, Diverse Portrait of LGBT Americans" is a one-hour PBS special featuring a collection of interviews and footage from not only well-known LGBT figures, but everyday LGBT folk as well. It proposes to show LGBT Americans in a realistic and all-encompassing light at a time when the acceptance of our group is becoming wider, while there is a lot of prejudice to still work through.

Airing June 8th as part of National Gay & Lesbian Pride Month, "Out in America" was created by Emmy award-winning directory Andrew Goldberg ("Jerusalem: Center of the World") to create a portrait of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people that doesn't fall into the stereotypical portrayals so often seen on network television and in the movies.
