Executive Director, The Source LGBT+ Center

Brian Poth identifies as a nonbinary/queer individual and uses he/they pronouns. He is a co-founder of The Source LGBT+ Center, its first Board Chair, and became its first Executive Director in 2017. He was born in Tulare but grew up in Los Angeles working as a child actor. Brian graduated from Loyola Marymount with a degree in Film Production and returned to professional acting to appear in over 80 episodes of television, most notably CSI: Miami, Six Feet Under, and True Blood. In 2014 Brian returned to the Central Valley to be closer to his sister Michelle, who was battling cancer. It was during that time he met some local folx and began dreaming of building a community center. The Source LGBT+ Center just celebrated 5 years of serving the queer and trans community and has over 25 programs and services. “Not only has The Source grown, but we have also grown with it. The Source has changed our community… it has changed all of us.”
