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.
"Stephanie z muže ženou: Autobiografie transsexuála" (Stephanie From Male to Female: The Autobiography of a Transsexual) is the Czech language edition of "Stephanie: A Girl in a Million" (1988) by Stephanie Anne Lloyd.
"This is Stephanie’s autobiography. It tells the story of Stephanie Anne Lloyd, the founder of Transformation and one of the first openly transgender women to speak out about the struggles and achievements of someone who is openly transgender.
At the age of 68, I have lived just over 50% of my life as a woman and the other half as a man. If women knew how much easier it is for men I am sure there would be a revolution. Hopefully, this very personal and honest account will give a unique perspective of the real differences between the sexes and also make the path of those who follow in my footsteps somewhat easier in these more enlightened times.

I have never had a chance to talk to Stephanie, and I wish I could. Her life was inspirational and full of extraordinary events. She was a British businesswoman and hotelier, known for her participation in the reality television series about her Hotel Stephanie for BBC Wales in 2008 and 2009.
In 1984 she established Transformation, a business catering to the transgender and transvestite community. Her website is still online, offering a variety of feminizing medicine and clothes. She wrote: "At the age of 68, I have lived just over 50% of my life as a woman and the other half as a man. If women knew how much easier it is for men I am sure there would be a revolution. Hopefully this very personal and honest account will give a unique perspective of the real differences between the sexes and also make the path of those who follow in my footsteps somewhat easier in these more enlightened times."
