Interview with David Bermudez & Bob Isadore | Ep #19

Profiles in LGBTQ+ Courage

David Bermudez and Bob Isadore are a same-sex couple who have been together for 47 years.

David, a veteran of the Stonewall uprising of 1969, met Bob, in 1974, when the two were both living and working in New York City.

At the time, David was a Manhattan-based interior designer. Bob, was an assistant buyer for Saks Fifth Avenue who hailed from Queens.

As they tell PFLAG Cape Cod’s Rick Koonce in this insightful, wide-ranging interview, their relationship began with a bounced check, and a chance glance by David of Bob in a New York City phone booth.

Soon afterwards, the two realized they’d both met someone very special.

And so began a decades-long relationship between a Portuguese Catholic from Fall River, Massachusetts who loves to cook, and a burly, Bronx-born Puerto Rican who loves Judy Garland, and has a passion for rhythm and blues.
