Why?
Her brother Mike is apparently gay. Accepting the award, she recalled when he came out to his family:

SPRiNKLES's Take: I found this little tidbit interesting, mainly because of the slight connection Anne has to Vassar, and Vassar's rather nonchalant attitude towards queers in general. I come from a background that isn't as accepting (Catholicism), and to me it's heartwarming to see a story like this in the news. Many celebrities have been taking home Ally awards lately - Barbara Walters took home a GLAAD Ally award on Monday for her reporting on transgender children. |
