- Michael Callen (April 11, 1955 - December 27, 1993) was a singer, songwriter, composer, author, and AIDS activist. He was a significant architect of the response to the AIDS crisis in the United States. First diagnosed with "Gay related immune deficiency" (GRID) in 1982, Callen quickly became a leader in the response to the epidemic. He was a founding member of the People With AIDS Self-Empowerment Movement among other organizations, and he testified before the President's Commission on AIDS and both houses of the United States Congress. Callen died of AIDS-related complications in Los Angeles, California, at the age of 38.
- Callen, nato a Rising Sun nel 1955, ebbe la diagnosi di quello che all'epoca non si chiamava nemmeno Aids, ma ancora Gay related immune deficiency, nel 1982, e fu uno dei primi a reagire all'epidemia, creando successivamente la definizione di "Persone con Aids" (Pca) in contrasto con la definzione allora prevalente di "vittime dell'Aids". Fu uno dei fondatori, tra le altre, della "People with AIDS Coalition" ("Coalizione delle persone con Aids"), e testimoniò di fronte ad una commissione presidenziale del goveno americano sull'Aids, e davanti ad entrambi i rami del Congresso statunitense. Nel 1983 scrisse a quattro mani il libro How to have sex in an epidemic ("Come fare sesso durante un'epidemia"), che fissava le basi del sesso sicuro valide ancor oggi. Nel 1990, scrisse Surviving Aids ("Sopravvivere all'Aids").
