First up is Elizabeth Fogner, she/he, Non-Binary, Trans, and Queer writer for Exposed: The Series.
First up is Elizabeth Fogner, she/he, Non-Binary, Trans, and Queer writer for Exposed: The Series.
She wanted to take her time to come out and was careful who she shared her sexuality with. At the age of 16, she was publicly outed but instead of denying her sexuality, she decided to own it.
For Elizabeth, she uses androgyny to help others discover their own identities. She pulls inspiration from creator, Ryan Murphy, because of the way he represents the underrepresented LGBTQ+ community.
When asked how she combats hate with love, she immediately encourages her community, “Never limit yourself. Experiment with feelings and what feels right. Labels can help find yourself or limit you, so do what feels right.”

Aaron Michael Tyler, he/him, Gay, and plays Brandon Foster for Exposed: The Series.
Born and raised in Petersburg, Virginia “(TWO UP, TWO DOWN!!! 804 STAND UP!!!)” from a young age he knew that he was different from the other boys. Throughout the years he has slowly come out to his family and friends, who have been supportive all the way.
He realized that art was his safe haven to create stories about underrepresented groups through the stage and screen. In 2020, he had a one-act play virtually produced, Boys Like Us, through SPARC’S New Voices. It is important to him that he plays roles that humanize and validates Black Queer characters.
In society, being vulnerable is frowned upon and damages someone’s self-perception. Aaron lives authentically and celebrates his pride by “actively working against that toxic narrative.” He is excited and eager to bring the world of Exposed to life to help highlight the beauty of the LGBTQ+ community.
