Jerry DeGrieck
Gerald (Jerry) C. DeGrieck is a public health manager, policy advisor, and former member of the Ann Arbor City Council. During his term on the city council, he came out as a gay man. He and Nancy Wechsler, a fellow member of the Ann Arbor City Council and Human Rights Party elected alongside Wechsler who came out as a lesbian while serving, are typically cited as the first openly LGBT elected officials in the United States.
==Ann Arbor City Council==
DeGrieck and Nancy Wechsler were elected to the Ann Arbor City Council as members of the Human Rights Party on April 3, 1972. Political observers did not believe the third party had much chance of winning any seats, but the party's liberal platform appealed to young voters and beat university professors running as Democrats in the 1st and 2nd wards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Ann Arbor Human Rights Party, 1972 )〕 At the time of the election, Wechsler was a 22-year-old history student at University of Michigan, the first student member of the city council. In 1973, while serving on the council, DeGrieck came out as a gay man and Wechsler as a lesbian in response to an anti-LGBT incident at a local restaurant. In 1974, rather than seek re-election, DeGrieck moved to Seattle, Washington went on to work for Seattle's Gay Pride Week and eventually became a public health manager and policy advisor to the City of Seattle.〔
