More than half of those living with HIV or AIDS in San Francisco are 50 years or older. Many never expected to live and have watched helplessly as the friends and community they loved disappeared. Peter Greene, who recently died after living with AIDS for more than thirty years, once said, “I’m the luckiest unlucky person in the world. No one wants to be the last man standing.” Forum talks with long-term survivors of HIV/AIDS featured in the San Francisco Chronicle’s multiplatform reporting project “Last Men Standing.”
Surrounded by the ghosts of a generation lost to the AIDS epidemic, eight gay men search for meaning in a life they never expected to have.
