About the author
I’m Andrea James, a filmmaker and consumer activist. I started this site during my own gender transition and have updated it for over 25 years.
I have been in a number of media projects, including an instructional video series for transgender people, a transgender dating show starring Calpernia Addams, and documentaries like HBO’s Middle Sexes and Beautiful Daughters, which was about our production of the first all-transgender performance of Eve Ensler’s play The Vagina Monologues.
I have helped produce and consulted on many feature films and television episodes with transgender themes, like NatGeo’s Gender Revolution with Katie Couric. I have also written, produced, and/or directed projects on vegetarianism and LGBTQ adoption.
In 2021, the United States Library of Congress selected this site for preservation in its digital archives as “an important part of this collection and the historical record.”
