The Search for Life in Distant Galaxies

Ed Marker’s photos of friends from Doyle’s after hours club and The Gilded Cage.

Ed Marker must leave his home of forty years in San Francisco’s Tenderloin District.

Through a collection of eccentric and pseudo scientific studies, drawings, maps, diaries and scrapbooks that have mysteriously turned up in San Francisco’s GLBT Historical Society archives, we are able to piece together a day that transforms his life.
