SAN FRANCISCO (February 12, 2004) — CURVE, the best-selling lesbian magazine, today celebrates the marriage of managing editor Gretchen Lee to her partner of seven years, the magazine’s Web producer Evie Leder. The couple was wed on the steps of the rotunda of San Francisco’s City Hall, with California State Assemblymember Mark Leno officiating.
