Join Village Books in welcoming Hannah Murphy Winter and Billie Winter to celebrate Queer Power Couples!
This photographic celebration of queer love and excellence gathers fourteen LGBTQ+ power couples, offering a glimpse into the journeys that led to their meaningful relationships and thriving careers. These icons come from a range of backgrounds—they are trailblazers who lead research labs, kitchens, and news organizations; create life-giving art and music; and tell queer stories in award-winning books, films, and television shows. Queer Power Couples is a meaningful gift for queer folks, allies who want to learn more about queer culture, and anyone who wants to uplift the stories of the LGBTQ+ community.
From designer Debbie Millman’s ardent courtship of writer Roxane Gay to the romantic and creative relationship forged between Perfume Genius bandmates Mike Hadreas and Alan Wyffels on stage during their first world tour, this beautiful book offers a closer look into the lives of these inspiring LGBTQ+ couples.
Hannah Murphy Winter (she/they)is a journalist who writes about queerness and policies that impact LGBTQ+ lives. Her work frequently appears in Rolling Stone. She lives in Seattle with her wife, Billie Winter, three cats they found in their shed, and their rescue dog, Pippin. The first person she ever recognized as queer was Spinelli from Recess.
Billie Winter (she/her)is a photographer and videographer. She grew up in Queens, NY and worked at Rolling Stone as a photo editor for 15 years until she moved to Seattle and became an organic, regenerative farmer. She still has a crush on Cheetara from Thundercats.
