''Suze Orman is someone whose commonsense financial advice has been heard by people across the nation and the globe--both LGBT and straight. That this advice comes from an open lesbian bridges the divide between LGBT and heterosexual communities and proves that, no matter our sexual orientation or gender identity, we all share the same concerns about paying our bills, feeding and clothing our children, and buying homes. HRC is pleased to recognize her achievements by presenting her with the 2008 National Equality Award.''
Joe Solmonese, President of Human Rights Campaign which will be honoring financial advice writer and lecturer Suze Orman, who came out publicly as a lesbian a little more than a year ago. The HRC National Gala Dinneris set to happen on October 4, 2008. (HRC)
