A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Samantha Pearsall - The Woman I Am

Full title: "The Woman I Am: My Journey from Richard to Samantha" by Samantha Pearsall. 

The book "traces Samantha's story from her birth, childhood, teenage years and the first two and half decades of her life as Richard. We learn the pain of realising she was a woman trapped in male body. The total freedom she felt post gender reassignment surgery, the challenges in her relationships and the peril she often faced meeting men and dating as a transgender woman."

I had the pleasure of interviewing Samantha and this is what she told me about this book: "I've decided to publish the book hoping to be able to support the deaf transgender community to let them know that they’re not alone. The journey, experience, and dilemma I have faced, have caused me to fight such a huge battle throughout my life."

"The roller coaster I have gone through, being deaf and transgender, resulted in a dual-discrimination. I’m in no position to be able to help everyone, but if I could change one person's mindset in the community and their perspective toward the transgender community in a positive way then I would be happy."
