Once upon a time, there was no beard. Just a curl. In 1972, while I was on the Board of NOW in NYC, I chaired its “Task Force on the Masculine Mystique,” and organized at NYU what may have been the first men’s liberation conference. My former wife, Ursie, posed with me for a UPI story by Patricia McCormick. Photo by UPI.
