Summary

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
