“The Saint of Dry Creek”
Picture a 1950s farmer calling out his son for being gay, and you probably don’t imagine it being a very loving conversation. But what if that wasn’t the case?
Storycorps animated Patrick Haggerty’s story of growing up the son of a dairy farmer in rural Washington state. As a teen, Haggerty began to realize he was gay, and worked studiously to hide any traces of it. But one day, after performing at a school assembly, he learned that his father could see him much more clearly than he realized.
