January 25, 1928 – July 21, 2007
Rabbi Sherwin Wine, founder of the Birmingham Temple and the Humanistic Judaism movement, hosted a monthly gathering of closeted gay professionals called the First Sunday Group that provided discreet financial support to more public LGBTQ activism in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
In the early 1980s, Rabbi Wine also organized a support group for bisexual men who were married to women. Meetings were held at his apartment in Birmingham, MI.
