My chat w/Wilson Cruz about changes at GLAAD

Last year, actor Wilson Cruz became a staff member at GLAAD and since then, has become one of the most visible representatives of the organization.

Last week, GLAAD President Herndon Graddick resigned after just 13 months on the job for personal reasons.

Wilson and I chatted about that on Sunday at the 2013 Voice Awards.

‘The real story is Herndon took a leave of absence a couple of months ago for personal reasons,’ he says. ‘And it’s the same personal reasons that have led him to the decision to resign.’

Wilson declined to say what those personal reasons are.

‘He’s doing great, we’re doing great,’ he adds. ‘Herndon is a part of our family, he will still continue to be present and welcome. He left us in a really great place and we continue. GLAAD has been here for 28 years and we’re not going anywhere.’
