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.
Original title: "Anak kehidupan - kisah sejati perjalanan hidup ratu waria tingkat dunia Chenny Han: anak manusia yang terlahir sebagai lelaki menjalani kehidupan sebagaimana perempuan" (Child of life - The true story of the life journey of world-class drag queen Chenny Han: a human child who was born as a man lives life like a woman) by Isye Soentoro.
The book is a biography of Chenny Han, b. 1963, an Indonesian pre-operative transsexual woman. Chenny Han is a successful bridal and beauty entrepreneur. “I know how it feels to be different. Yet, by focusing on our talents and by continuously improving our skills and never stop learning, we can gain people’s trust and appreciation as the key to successful business."
She also added: “I started my business from only eight wedding dresses for rent. To attract more customers, I gave free make-up to customers who rented their wedding dresses from me. Start from small as great things always start small.” She built her beauty business for 20 years and she is now a well-known bridal designer, make-up artist and author. She owns a bridal Chenny House and three beauty schools in Jakarta, Semarang, and Surabaya.
