Pam Gilllgan
Gilligan is co-manager of Delilah’s nightclub and Delilah’s Enclave hotel in Cathedral City and radio talk- ahow host. “Palm Springs' Most Famous Lesbian: It’s a title her friends teasingly gave Pam Gilligan last year after a large photo of her appeared in a Desert Sun story about lesbian activities during the week of the Nabisco Dinah Shore golf tournament. She laughs about it now, but for a couple of days in 1995, it wasn't funny. “I think I lost a job over it," she said. .

Immediately after the photos appeared, her supervisor called her, offered a set of excuses ' andt old her she “was no longer needed." “I was kind of stunned at first," said Gilligan, 34, “but then I realized it was their loss. I'm a good employee. Whatever my boss' fears were about homosexuality, those are his problems. His prejudices will stunt the growth of his company.” Her job loss was not unusual. But there are no real sour grapes here. Gilligan has prospered..“After I lost that job, doors closed, but doors opened and I walked right through," she said.

Gilligan co-manages Delilah's and Delilah’s Enclave in Cathedral City with her twin sister, 'Trish Owens. Plus she is co-host on “Out with Pam and Skip,” a radio talk show‘that airs on KDES, 920. AM, from 10 to 11 am. Saturdays.

"People accept homosexuality on differnt leveles. The media give lots of play to gays and lesbians who act and look like way-out weirdos, she said. “Some people have the notion that gay people,have sex 24 hours a day and are living with freaky, perverted people," she said. “But most of us am just average people. I mean we go to work do a good job, go home and watch ‘Wheel of Fortune’ and ‘Jeopardy.”’

Gilligan said she presents herself as herself. No labels, just Pam. “I get to know people on the basis of my business ethics, on the basis of my abilities," she explained. “If they have a problem with my sexual orientation, I don't want anything to do with them I don’ t have time for their prejudice."

At first the parties were small, discreet and by invitation only. A few hundred women, most of them in professions, would trek to hilltop mansions and airplane hangars to celebrate the scores of their favorite players in the Nabisco Dinah Shore, Now, 11 years after those parties began, promoters from the Coachella Valley, Los Angeles and San Francisco host elaborate events that last for days and attract thouands of women from across the country and around the world. In the last decade, the Coachella Valley in mid-March has become the rallying point for gay women looking for a place and a reason to party. The annual gathering is the largest leshian event in the world. said Pam. Lesbians from Japan, England, Texas, Arkansas and New York. That is not the image tournament officials want to perpetuate, as steer media questions away from the lesbian entourages that follow some players and note in- stead the number of professional golfers whose families including young children accompany them on the LPGA tour. But the fact remains that from 15,000 to 20,000 gay women are expected in the Coachella Valley when the parties begin tonight. If prior years are any indications, promoters say, most of the party-goers will never set foot on a fairway.
