LIN: I’m Lin Davis. I was born in Denver, and raised in Richland, Washington and Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1967, just like a salmon, I felt the call to the San Francisco Bay area. So I drove my little red VW bug to San Francisco and lived there for almost 30 years of amazing LGBTQ history. Then I met Mo on a street in Oakland where we were both walking old dogs. We got married, and then looked for a new place to live, and came to Juneau in February 1993.
MO: I’m Maureen Longworth; my nickname is Mo. I grew up in Los Angeles. When I graduated in 1984, I moved to the San Francisco Bay area. I got a job in a clinic, which changed my life. I decided to go into pre-med and become a doctor. I’ve worked as a doctor in San Francisco and here in Juneau.
