Description

Ms. Frye offers various ideas on such topics as what restroom to use, the legality of marriages, dealing with probation officers if convicted of a crime, whether or not surgery is necessary, and how to advise nursing home clients in the care of transgender elderly. Phyllis Randolph Frye is the first openly transgender judge in the United States. Having lived more than 60 percent of life as the woman she always felt herself to be, Phyllis remains on the cutting edge of LGBTIQ legal and political issues. While the gay community was still ignoring or marginalizing the transgender community, Phyllis began the national transgender legal and political movement with six annual transgender law conferences and grassroots training in the early 1990s.
