Nairne Holtz is an award winning queer Canadian author.
From Nairne's personal Goodreads account:
"I began my writing career in the early 90s with the creation of a pansexual queer porn zine, Pornorama, which generated reviews and sales from around the world. Today, I manage a law library in Toronto and am the author of several works of fiction. The Skin Beneath (Insomniac, 2007), was shortlisted for Quebec’s McAuslan Prize and This One’s Going to Last Forever (Insomniac, 2009), was a Lambda Literary Award finalist. My newest novel, Femme Confidential, was released in November of 2017. For more information about my work and my projects, go to www.femmeconfidential.com"

Editor Note: The history of printing of Foster's book is interesting as it demonstrates some of the power of lesbian small presses and the interests of lesbians as a reading community. Foster published the book first in 1956 through Vantage Press, a vanity press based in New York. It was then reprinted by the feminist press in Baltimore, MD, Diana Press, in 1975. In 1985, Barbara Grier, the owner of Naiad Press with her partner, reissued the book. Naiad Press was a large publisher of lesbian fiction.
Joanne Passet has written an excellent biography of Jeannette Howard Foster titled, Sex Variant Woman: The Life of Jeannette Howard Foster. (Cambridge, MA: Da Capo Press, 2008.

"Tribe" by Martha Courtot
You say to us: if this is a tribe, why do you never stay still?
Why do you meet only long enough to exchange
stones, shells, feathers, amulets?
Why can you pass through the center only
alone and in absolute darkness?
You say, if this is a tribe, what is the giver language?
What is its name, who belongs?
You challenge our assumptions.
You say, what kind of people is
always on the road, alone,
only speaking to each other in crisis,
at connecting points,
in crowded intersections in dying cities,
in drugstores
in small towns where no one knows your name,
and then dispersal?
This is our answer: our language is poetry. Do you understand?
Our language is signs, symbols, sacred objects:
we are sacred people.
We have magical properties.
There are many things to be done,
people to be healed, houses to be built.
It is not a time to be together.
It is a time to be separate,
to learn what it means to be alone.
We tell you this: we are doing the impossible.
We are teaching ourselves to be human.
When we are finished,
the strands which connect us
will be unbreakable; already
we are stronger than we have ever been...
Thus we move: silently, separately;
our name is buried in various sacred spots all over the land.
We are waiting until it is safe to claim it.
Though we move silently, separate,
can you hear our joint voices singing,
singing our women's songs in ever widening circles?
Listen. We are making ready.
Hear our music across the dying land...
from Tribes by Martha Courtot, published by Pearlchild Press.

EDITORS NOTE:
This bibliography was challenging to construct because Grahn is one of the most widely circulated lesbian-feminist poets during the 1970s and 1980s. I have omitted a complete bibliography of publications of individual poems. There are particular citations of which information is incomplete or confusing in library database and I have not examined the source. These citations are followed by an asterisk (*). I welcome feedback to correct, clarify and expand this entry.

A Sonatina Followed by Another, by Gertrude Stein; edited by Fran Winant.
The introductory letter "To Our Readers" provides this information: The poem by Gertrude stein, pgs. 5, 6, was edited by Fran Winant. This is what Fran wrote to us about her editing: "My method was to put togetehr the sentences and paragraphs I felt were most revealing of the main ideas in the poem. . .I left out a lot of what I felt was Stein talking to herself, making personal references which had little or no meaning for anyone else. I felt that she was upset by the idea of talking about her lesbianism and tried to hide her subject by talking about irrelevant or obscure things. In orther words, I tried to extract the poem-within-the-poem. . . .
I find that, especially when read out loud, Stein's poetry has a magic quality, a feeling of giving off meaning beyond what words can say. I tried the poem on two audiences, one straight and one gay. The straights sat like sticks as if they didn't hear a word. The gay women laughed, cheered and generally exploded at every line. I feel this poem is part of gay women's culture, that even Stein tried to hide from us, and should be given back to gay women. . "
She Who, poetry by Judy Grahn, Graphics by Nancy Myron. Poems in this dossier include "She Who," "A Geology Lesson," "Slowly: A Plainsong from an Older Woman to a Younger Woman," and "The Woman Whose Head is On Fire."

Archival Material from Persephone Press
http://oasis.lib.harvard.edu/oasis/deliver/~sch01189
Persephone Press was founded in 1976 in Watertown, Massachusetts, by a lesbian-feminist collective called Pomegranate Productions. Its first publication, The Feminist Tarot, helped subsidize the first National Women's Spirituality Conference, Through the Looking Glass, held in Boston in April 1976. The goal of Persephone Press was to produce innovative material to foster lesbian sensibility and to effect social change by building a successful publishing company and communications network. Two of its three founders, Gloria Z. Greenfield and Pat McGloin, served as financial administrator and director of marketing respectively. Persephone Press was sold to Beacon Press in 1983.
Polly Joan and Andrea Chesman in the Guide to Women's Publishing (Paradise, CA: Dustbooks, 1978) note that Persephone Press was "marketing six books at the moment." Those six books were A Feminist Tarot, The Feminist Book of Lights and Shadows (by Z. Budapest), Through the Looking Glass, Susan B. Anthony Coven No. 1, The Beguines, Moondance, and The Fourteenth Witch. Of these, Persephone Press published A Feminist Tarot and The Fourteenth Witch. I believe other publishers published the other books and Persephone Press was marketing them.

Editor Note: Some of Us Press is not a lesbian or feminist press as the others in this archive, but the publication of Lee Lally's chapbook in conjunction with Diana Press sparked my interest in the press. There are a number of chapbooks by women on the list as well that I have note reviewed. There is some information about Lee Lally available on this blog: http://douglangsdcpoetryblog.blogspot.com/2007/08/lee-lally.html
I would be happy to receive email correspondence from anyone with information about Some of Us Press.

Taylor, Valerie and Jeannette Howard Foster. Two Women: the poetry of Valerie Taylor and Jeannette Foster. Chicago, IL: Womanpress, 1976.
Description from Flyer: Jeannette Foster, now eighty, resides in a nursing home in Arkansas and lives in the timeless world of literature. She has retained the wit, lucidity and passionate dedication to books which commended her to thousands of undergraduates during her long career as a university librarian. In her poems, written between 1916 and 1938, readers will find an intense love of nature as well as a love of women which has room for both idealism and passion.
Dr. Foster was one of Kinsey’s first librarians and in that capacity had access to a vast store of unpublished material which undoubtedly furnished some of the data for her masterpiece, Sex Variant Women in Literature. This definitive work, out of print for many years, will soon be re-issued by Diana Press of Baltimore.
Valerie Taylor set out on the path to personal liberation at the age of forty by ending a disastrous marriage and undertaking the total support and upbringing of three sons. She was a rural teacher and office worker from 1956 to 1975 was employed in the publishing industry.
A feminist, peace activist and an advocate of gay liberation, she also spends considerable time worrying about the problem of feeding the world’s population. She has published seven lesbian novels, two other books and a sizeable body of short material. Now retired and living in the East, she is working on a novel about two women over sixty—love at any age!
Ms. Taylor’s influences range from Edna St. Vincent Millay through Gertrude Stein to Denise Levertov. The verses in this volumer were written between 1940 and 1975.
