For over 40 years, New York clothier Michael Salem has provided discreet, fashion-conscious service to cross-dressers; men whose secret fantasy is to dress convincingly as women.

Beyond being one of the world’s leading clothiers to cross-dressers, Michael Salem is also the cousin of Harvey Milk; the gay San Francisco supervisor who was assassinated in November 1978. Milk’s life is the subject of “Milk”, a biopic starring Sean Penn and James Franco that has just been released.

Michael helped the producers of “Milk” by supplying them with family history and images. Not surprisingly, he was invited to the New York premiere of the movie, where he met with ‘Milk’ star Sean Penn as well as Jeff Goldblum and Jon Voight who attended the premiere.

This page will take you to some stories about Michael and harvey, ending with a link to Michael’s own online store at www.michaelsalem.com.   “We are a USA-owned shop which evolved from Salem Hosiery, a family business opened by my father in New York,” says Salem. “We have been selling to the cross-dressing community since the early 1900s. Then as now, we have served this community with discretion, sensitivity, and quality products; many of which we have created ourselves.”
