Judith Mehr is arguably one of the most well-known artists continually commissioned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She has painted prophets, apostles, murals, and some of the most iconic gospel art used within the LDS Church. Behind that talent and her paintbrushes lived a secret. Judith was gay—and feared coming out.  This is her story. Judy shares her experience growing up closeted, college life at BYU (where she was tasked to spy on women in her dorm to determine if they were lesbians), finding (and hiding) a partner, coming out and finding her authentic self. The video version of this podcast is available on our website at LatterGayStories.org, our Facebook page and YouTube.com/LatterGayStories.

122: Judith Mehr | I painted some of Mormonism’s most iconic art—and I was closeted. 

This week Jill sits down with the amazingly talented Judith Mehr to cover her journey of becoming a renowned artist for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Judith accomplished so much while also dealing with rejection and self-discovery of finding her true lesbian self.
