In this compelling episode, we sit down with Tony Morrison, an Emmy and

GLAAD award-winning producer and journalist, to discuss his remarkable

career and profound personal journey. Tony, a former senior producer at

ABC's Good Morning America, shares how his work in broadcast journalism

laid the foundation for his current role as a powerful advocate for the

LGBTQ community. The conversation explores his impactful history at

GLAAD, where he served as Senior Director of Communications, and the

pivotal moment he decided to publicly share his own story of living with

HIV.

The discussion delves into Tony's life and work, highlighting his

commitment to destigmatizing HIV and amplifying the voices of those

living with the virus. We learn about his personal experience of keeping

his diagnosis a secret for years before his brave decision to go public

with an essay for Good Morning America. This act of vulnerability

sparked a new chapter in his career, shaping his advocacy work and

inspiring his digital series, "Truth Be Told," which spotlights thriving

individuals in the HIV community.
