Barney Frank was named this year's #1 most powerful LGBT person in Out magazine's 3rd Annual Power 50 list. Frank moved up from #2 last year, because as head of the House Financial Services Committee, he will be at the center of "some of the most heated public policy battles in the coming months." Frank has an autobiography coming out this fall called Barney Frank: The Story of America's Only Left-Handed, Gay, Jewish Congressman.
