Actor/producer/writer Dan Bucatinsky becomes a dad…after an emotional roller-coaster ride of meeting with birth moms and going through the adoption process. Then…he and his husband Don discover that that was the easy part!

In his book, “Does This Baby Make Me Look Straight? Confessions of a Gay Dad”, Dan writes with raw honesty and humor about his journey as a gay parent. The experiences he and Don navigate, as new parents, are both hilarious and moving. (What mom wouldn’t sympathize with Dan’s experience, when he sits up late at night gluing glitter on Valentines for daughter Eliza and son Jonah…only to have them forget to make a Valentine for him?)

Dan, who will be a guest in San Gabriel Valley Pride’s Author’s Lounge at Pride Festival 2012, Sunday, October 14th on the PCC campus, talks about his decision to become a parent…and the trials, tribulations, and sense of wonder he and Don have experienced, as they watch their children grow.
