PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in full page, full color photography of the subjects with accompanying descriptive write-ups. "The portraits and narratives that follow offer a nuanced view into the struggles and joys of growing older as a transgender person and offer a poignant reflection on what it means to live authentically despite seemingly insurmountable odds." 163 pages.
