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.

Jenny Cheiloudaki - Η Μαύρη βίβλος

Original title: "Η Μαύρη βίβλος" (The Black Book) by Τζένη Χειλουδάκη (Jenny Cheiloudaki). The book was published in 2003 and republished in 2015,

23 forbidden chapters from the life of a creature who traveled, tasted, fell in love, enjoyed, lived to the extreme.

Jenny Cheiloudaki is a Greek celebrity, a popular model of the 1990s, who became known to the general public through television and due to the social scandal caused by the publication of her love affair with the then Prosecutor of the First Instance of Rhodes - Giorgos Sakellaropoulos, who met her while inspecting brothels in Rhodes. According to Wikipedia, the scandal and publicity were intended by Hiloudaki, and once Sakellaropoulos discovered she was transgender, he left her to return to his family.


She was born on February 21, 1968 in Sitia, Crete under the name Ioannis Cheiloudakis. In early adolescence, under the weight of dysphoria, she began the process of gender transition using hormones at the age of 13. She underwent gender reassignment surgery in London at the age of 20. 

She made a career in modeling, worked and ran brothels, while at the same time she was involved in writing books mainly of an autobiographical nature. She now lives in her family home in Sitia, having withdrawn from the spotlight.
