A couple of sporty lesbian moms in the news:
- Sports writer Kaki Flynn profiles lesbian mom Jenny Fulle, who in 1974 became “the first girl to officially play Little League baseball since the rule disallowing girls was added in 1951.” Fulle is now executive vice-president and executive producer of Sony Pictures Imageworks, whose film credits include “I Am Legend,” all three “Spider-Man” movies, two of the “Matrix” movies, and “The Chronicles of Narnia.” She also coaches her own son’s Little League team.
- After Ellen reports that Lisa Brummel, Microsoft’s openly lesbian senior vice president for human resources, is one of four women who just bought the Seattle Storm WNBA team. I’ll add that Brummel is also a mom, who raised two children with her partner. (Business Week had a flattering article about her last fall.)
