In this episode of the Trans Lesson Plan Podcast, host Mari dives into the life and legacy of Billy Tipton, a talented jazz musician whose story has profoundly impacted transgender history. Born Dorothy Lucille Tipton, Billy navigated the challenges of a male-dominated industry and lived most of his life as a man, keeping his assigned gender at birth a secret until after his death. Join us as we explore Billy's musical success, the discovery of his secret, and his enduring impact on the transgender community and beyond. This episode offers a powerful reminder of the resilience and courage it takes to live authentically in a restrictive society.
