Ron Nyswaner, screenwriter of the acclaimed Showtime series Fellow Travelers, which takes LGBTQ+ characters from the homophobic hysteria of the 1950s through the AIDS crisis, says it drew partly on his life. Nyswaner adapted the series from Thomas Mallon’s novel of the same name, adding Black characters and making some other changes. But it reflects his experience as well, he recently told The Hollywood Reporter.

I began the pitch for “Fellow Travelers,” my adaptation of Thomas Mallon’s beautiful novel, with a piece of personal history. Growing up in a small Pennsylvania town in the 1960s, I never heard the word “homosexual” spoken aloud. There were no gay characters in movies, books or on television. I grew up believing that my hidden self was evil. Unspeakable.
