A random collection of over 1994 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.

Full title: "The Official Autobiography of Sex-Change" by Stephanie Anne Lloyd.
“The Official Autobiography of Sex-Change” by Stephanie Anne Lloyd is an extraordinary chronicle of a life lived boldly and unapologetically, capturing the journey of one of Britain’s most visible and pioneering transgender figures. Stephanie Anne Booth, also known as Stephanie Anne Lloyd, was born on May 25, 1946, in St Albans, Hertfordshire, and later grew up in a family that became Jehovah’s Witnesses.
From a young age, Stephanie was aware of her unique identity, later explaining in a 1988 interview with Ruby Wax that she was born with a chromosome disorder that made her partly female. Her early adulthood was marked by ordinary jobs including work as a laboratory technician, cinema manager, costing clerk, and retail chain manager, and in 1968 she married and fathered three children. Despite these conventional beginnings, her life took a profound turn in the early 1980s when she separated from her family and began the process of gender reassignment under the care of a specialist psychologist at Wythenshawe Hospital in Manchester, culminating in surgery at Charing Cross Hospital in London in September 1983. At this point, she adopted the name Stephanie Anne Lloyd, marking a new chapter in both her personal and professional life, though this transition came with significant challenges including a divorce and losing her managerial job due to tabloid publicity.
