Starred in Barwood's "Serving In Silence"
In "Serving for Silence," the Barbra Streisand executive produced film for Barwood, Glen Close portrays Colonel Margerethe Cammermeyer, the true story of a woman who successfully fought the government's biased policy on gays in the military.

Margerethe (Grethe) Cammermeyer's story made front page headlines all around America when the film was first broadcast on NBC. Her military career was distinguished, having served a tour of duty in Vietnam, and winning a bronze star. When she was discharged from the Army after disclosing her sexual preference, she chose to challenge the government. Ultimately, her initial case prevailed and the government's subsequent appeal was decided in her favor. She was reinstated in the National Guard in 1994 and has since retired with full miliary privileges.

In 1998, Grethe ran for Congress from her home state of Washington, but lost to the incumbant by a 10% margin. Between 1999 and 2001, Grethe hosted a daily internet radio talk show where the focus was on human rights and politics. Today, Grethe Cammermeyer continues to remain politically active, writes, and occupies her time with her family.
