When drafting a biographical statement for yourself or for someone else, recognize that you are providing information
for historians today and in the future. By perusing the Profiles Gallery, you will see that biographical sketches vary
in length from a few to many paragraphs. The statement should portray the whole of the subject’s life while highlighting
particular involvement with LGBT religious movements. A profile usually unfolds in roughly chronological order covering these major areas:
- family and religious context in which raised;
- educational and vocational formation;
- work history;
- emergence into LGBT religious movements;
- significant LGBT religious groups and/or events in which participated and roles carried out; and
- writings and publications.
With this information it is helpful to provide dates, locations and names of other persons as possible. Finally,
keep in mind that it is easy for LGBT-RAN to update these profiles at any time in the future–simply send new or
revised information to profiles@lgbtran.org.
