Robert Cleary just completed his first semester in the History Ph.D. Program at the Graduate Center and is excited about beginning the spring. Along with his work as a student at CUNY, he has recently begun volunteering with the LGBTQ National History Archive at the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center in Manhattan. Robert studied as an undergraduate at Hunter College after graduating from LaGuardia Community College, and began his graduate studies last year in the GC’s Liberal Studies Program. As a doctoral student, he is interested in exploring intersections between queer history and intellectual history.
