Dustin Lance Black is the handsome Oscar and Writers Guild of America award winning screenwriter of Milk.

The director, television producer, and LGBT activist grew up in a Mormon Household in San Antonio, Texas, before moving to Salinas, California, when his mother remarried.

Dustin was attracted to a boy in his neighborhood when he was six or seven and his sexuality left him shy and at times suicidal. He came out the closet after he graduated from high school.

Dustin attended UCLA and did theater work before his 1996 graduation. He has worked in television and film and remains a prominent LGBT and safe sex advocate. Go Dustin!
