Biographical Note
Jerrold “Jerry” Ernest Cohen (b. February 3, 1943, d. November 26, 1991) was a photographer and activist who helped found over a dozen organizations and held several leadership positions in Chicago’s LGBTQ community from the late 1960s through the early 1990s. Cohen was born on February 3, 1943, in Chicago, Illinois, to Lillian and Albert A. Cohen. He and his brother David attended South Shore High School in Chicago.
In 1969, at age 26, Cohen began attending University of Chicago gay liberation meetings. He helped grow the group into Chicago Gay Liberation, staffed the city’s first gay hotline, and marched in Chicago’s first Gay Pride March in 1970. Cohen cofounded the Chicago Gay Alliance in 1971, opening his home as Chicago’s first Gay Community Center and serving as the alliance’s treasurer. The same year, he helped organize the city’s first Gay Pride Week.
Cohen held several professional and volunteer business and accounting positions, including Systems Manager for the American Library Association. An accomplished photographer, he contributed work to the Chicago Gay Alliance Newsletter, the Chicago Gay Crusader, GayLife, BlueBoy, Man's Country, and the International Mr. Leather competitions. Cohen established his own studio, A Thousand Words, Unlimited, documenting LGBTQ life in the city through the late 1980s.
Through the 1970s and 1980s Cohen served in a variety of volunteer positions. He helped found the Windy City Gay Chorus, acting as its first Business Manager and organizing the first meeting of the Gay/Lesbian Choral Association. Cohen cofounded the Chi-Town Squares, a gay square dancing group, with Ron Goldman in 1987. He also held the office of Treasurer for Toddlin’ Town Performing Arts, an umbrella group for the Windy City Gay Chorus, Chicago Gay Pride Band, and the Artemis Singers.
During the AIDS epidemic, Cohen volunteered with the Howard Brown Memorial Clinic. After the death of his then partner, Cohen was instrumental in forming the Chicago chapter of the NAMES Project, bringing the AIDS Memorial Quilt to Chicago for the first time. Diagnosed as HIV-positive in 1984, Cohen participated in several investigative treatments and medical studies and cofounded the Test Positive Aware Network for couples living HIV/AIDS with his partner Alan Amberg.
Jerry Cohen died of complications of HIV infection on November 26, 1991. He was inducted into the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame in 1993.
