Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil was a bestselling book in 1994, which was made into a movie, by director Clint Eastwood in 1997.
The story was about Jim Williams, a wealthy, closeted gay man, who shoots and kills his gay, hired escort. The murder takes place in Williams' famous and historic Savannah, Georgia mansion, once owned by famed songwriter Johnny Mercer.
On my recent road trip to Savannah, I visited the gravesite of Danny Hansford, the gay or bisexual murder victim. He's laid to rest in Greenwich cemetery, which is next door to the famous Bonaventure cemetery.
Thanks for joining me today on another trip to celebrate another life with pride!
