Pierre is a "screen star turned author" in South Africa. He is a household name in South Africa due to his internationally recognised reality self-help book 'Dear Pierre' which sold out within 8 weeks in South Africa as well as being a TV con- tinuity presenter for the country's national broadcaster SABC 2 in years gone by. Pierre also gives back to the com- munity by lecturing communica- tion studies at the University of Jo- hannesburg (UJ) after resigning as youngest editor of the SA Military Medical Journal with the military rank of Captain. While lecturing at the University of Johannesburg he does his training as therapist and sets up shop in private practice which causes considerable media interest. Pierre will also be a guest on Diver- sity Rules Magazine on the Air on May 7th LIVE at 7:00 p.m. is month's issue also has some interesting articles including a feature about a new documentary book about drag queens, as well as a book by Hans Hirschi about LGBT family life that does not hinge upon the stereotypical mani- festaions that we see in the media and on TV. I hope you enjoy this issue and will encourage your friends and others to subscribe. Advertising opportu- nities are also available. Peace!
