But when a provocative Tom of Finland doll triggers Michael's long-buried desires, Betty discovers that secrets have been part of their life all along. With long-held mysteries thrust into the open, the foundation of their marriage and the path of their golden years is suddenly rocked. Now, they must redefine their future, and decide if it is one their love can survive. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT: Soon after I arrived in the United States, almost 20 years ago, I realized that loneliness and depression are common themes in the elderly universe. Without the support of close relatives, some have no one to call for help or solace and furthermore have no meaningful structures of community or support. Aging often brings illness, reduced income and loss of family and friends. Rather than ignore the problems facing the aging communities, I decided to build upon them by creating films that push these issues into the spotlight. Tom in America is a story based on dozens of testimonies I heard from gay seniors, particularly gay men, who have found themselves in a heterosexual relationship and, interesting enough, some of them have been able to manage their marital obligations with their inner desires.

    OHIO GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY DIGITAL LIBRARY Providing Digital Resources to our Members Worldwide Title: The Ohio Story Radio Scripts, MSS 218 Files 1-24 Digitized Scripts Available: www.ogsarchive.org The Ohio Story scripts were donated by the author's son, Jonathan Seidel, Cleveland, Ohio, on 12 Aug 1996. The original finding aid, developed by librarian Elizabeth Glasgow, said: "Collection contains the original scripts of the radio show, The Ohio Story, which aired in Cleveland during the late 1940s and early 1950s. Collection includes 2 stapled indexes to scripts running (by location) through Ada to Mesopotamia, Ohio, and 23 spiral-bound collections of scripts. Two sheets of biographical material about the author Frank Seidel are also included. The scripts read as such, complete with orchestra prompts, commercial breaks, etc. Not all scripts in the index were included in the donation." In 2014, librarian Tom Neel received a $2000 Ohio Archives Grant (funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC), an arm of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) through their State and National Archival Partnership (SNAP) Grants program) to digitize the scripts. Developed by Strongsville native and historian Frank Seidel, the shows aired three times per week from 1947 to 1967 in Akron, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Youngstown, and Zanesville. The sponsor was the Ohio Bell Telephone Company and the narrator was initially Robert Waldrop, and later, Nelson Olmsted (1914-1982). These were short pieces about Ohio communities, events, and personalities, generally ten minutes in length, and were used to fill air time after a 20-minute news block.
