Gene Robinson is the Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire. Ordained in 1973, he made history three decades later when he became the first openly gay person to be consecrated a bishop in the worldwide Anglican communion.

Since then Robinson has been a staunch and outspoken advocate for civil rights and marriage equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. He also has led retreat programs, coordinated youth ministries, started mentoring programs for clergy, and worked with AIDS patients in the United States, Uganda and South Africa.

He will present Justice and Compassion in an Age of Demonization on Thursday, October 4, at Elmhurst College. His appearance, part of the College's Speaking of Faith lecture series, is presented in cooperation with The Episcopal Church of Our Saviour, which is celebrating its 150th anniversary in Elmhurst.
