Phyllis Lyon and Del Martinand Jane Morrison have been community
activists for over half a century. Their contributions in the area of human
rights and civil rights are remarkable. Phyllis and Del are life
partners who have been together since the 50s. Their major role in Daughters

co-authorship of "Lesbian/Women' are among the many accomplishments of this
