Upon being approached by the Human Rights Campaign Fund, Jay Hollyfield agreed to organize a dinner with the help of Gene Harrington, Monte Frost and Scott Holman. The Dinner was held in Tony's Wine Cellar with a small group of interested persons in attendance. The following year a dinner was held in the Petroleum Club with a slightly largergroup present. By 1991 the founding group grew to ten with the addition of Keith McGee, Charles Armstrong, Larry Lingle, Bill White, Nancy Molleda and Frank Campisi. The Dinner was held at the Remington Hotel with two hundred twenty attending. By 1993 two more persons were added to the hosts, Phil Lacy and [anine Brunjes. The group incorporated as The Houston Black Tie Dinner, Inc., a 501(c)3 organi- zation to raise and distribute funds to both local charities and to a national bene- ficiary. The speaker was Roberta Achtenberg, the highest ranking gay member of the Clinton administration. The over $1,400,000 dollars distributed to beneficiaries from previous dinners since 1993 is a reflection of how we in the Houston and surrounding communities have responded to the call to support our community.
