Current Project: SURVIVING THE SILENCE
At the end of an illustrious career, Col. Thompson presides over the military dismissal board of Col. Grethe Cammermeyer for being gay. What noone knew was that Col. Thompson was also a lesbian. So - why does Col. Cammermeyer call her a hero?
In SURVIVING THE SILENCE, Col. Thompson and her wife Barbara Brass candidly share how they wrestled with heart-wrenching choices in public and private, hiding their relationship in their own home, speaking in code on the phone during appointments to the Pentagon and abroad, and struggling to protect their love while preserving Col. Thompson's career. www.SurvivingTheSilence.com
