...more than a decade now, Lee Iacocca has been synonymous with Chrysler Corp. -- for good and for ill. Almost singlehandedly he persuaded Congress in 1979 to bail out the ailing car company with a $1.5 billion loan guarantee, then paid back the money seven years ahead of schedule.

The pamphlet acknowledged that "sexual orientation is a topic that makes many people uncomfortable" -- an understatement on a par with original estimates for bailing out the savings and loan industry. Yet Rotenberg says his classmates and colleagues have been almost uniformly positive, both before and after his appearance in FORTUNE. His hot line (not mentioned in FORTUNE) has logged more than 1,100 calls...
