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.
Full title: "Transgender Role Models and Pioneers" by Barbra Penne.
"While transgender people have become more visible and gained a measure of acceptance from our cisnormative society in recent years, the need for trans role models to inspire young transgender people is still very real.
This title profiles a host of accomplished transgender people who have made their names in a wide range of fields, including sports, politics, activism, entertainment, and the arts. It includes historical pioneers - such as Christine Jorgensen, Marsha P. Johnson, and Sylvia Rivera - as well as present-day figures - such as Lana and Lilly Wachowski, Kye Allums, and Laverne Cox. A valuable resource for an underserved community."
