Tammy Faye cast member Ashley Campbell speaks to the real-life person behind his character in the show, Steve Pieters.
In October 1985, Tammy Faye Bakker invited Steve Pieters, a young gay pastor with HIV, for a live interview on her show Tammy’s House Party. It proved to be a seminal television moment, broadcast at a time when homophobia was widespread in the church, and led to Tammy Faye becoming an icon within the gay community.
