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: "The New Transsexuals: The Next Step In Human Evolution"
"To some it's Science Fiction; to others, salvation. Some snicker and sneer; some say: I'd do that. A few transform themselves with hormones and new attitudes. A very few step forward for gender-reassignment surgery. Morphologically speaking, men become women and women become men. Psychologically speaking, they become who they already are. Technology, desire, courage, despair and politics come together under the surgeon's knife, or at the tip of a syringe, or in fashion's secret closet.
In The New Transsexuals: The Next Step In Human Evolution, George Petros, author of Art That Kills, examines the social dynamics of sex changing and rearranging, and presents in interview form a snapshot of the Transsexual Revolution. Fred H. Berger, once publisher of Propaganda Magazine, provides the introduction. Interviewers Petros, Berger, Manuel Vasquez, Rio Warner, John Aes-Nihi, and Stanton LaVey probe Transsexuals and Transgender-identified individuals (as well as Annie Sprinkle, a gal with a hands-on fetish for Trans guys) about who they are, what they do and what they want.

Full title: "Going To Trinidad: A Doctor, a Colorado Town, and Stories from an Unlikely Gender Crossroads"
"For more than four decades, between 1969 and 2010, the remote former mining town of Trinidad, Colorado was the unlikely crossroads for approximately six thousand medical pilgrims who came looking for relief from the pain of gender dysphoria.
The surgical skill and nonjudgmental compassion of surgeons Stanley Biber and his transgender protege Marci Bowers not only made the phrase "Going to Trinidad" a euphemism for gender confirmation surgery in the worldwide transgender community, but also turned the small outpost near the New Mexico border into what The New York Times once called "the sex-change capital of the world."
