Remembering Charlie Brydon, an Early LGBTQ Rights Leader

by Randy Beitel and Lonnie Lusardo • Feb 18, 2021 at 9:40 am Charlie Brydon, a pioneer for LGBTQ rights in the PNW. COURTESY OF THE BRYDON FAMILY Charlie Brydon, an early LGBTQ rights leader, died February 9, 2021 at age 81 from complications of Alzheimer’s disease. From the mid-1970s through the 1990s, Brydon tirelessly networked with political and community leaders in Seattle to establish the LGBTQ community as an important constituency group in the public fabric of the city. At key points, Brydon took leadership roles in efforts to obtain anti-discrimination protections in Seattle and to defend against ballot initiatives that sought to repeal those protections.
