Description: Quinlan Miller reframes American television history by tracing a camp aesthetic and the common appearance of trans queer gender characters in both iconic and lesser known sitcoms throughout the 1950s and 1960s.

Review Quotes: "Camp TV offers us theoretical and methodological challenges to presumptions and argumentations common in queer media histories...hence the usefulness here of a new terminology entirely. What the book also offers, however, is an impressive model of full-scale approach to queer media histories."--Taylor Cole Miller "New Review of Film and Television Studies"
