ACK NOWLEDGMEN TS

I wish to thank a transgender lawyer who has been an inspiration and

encouragement to me since I  rst came out—Phyllis Randolph Frye. Phyllis

has been an encouragement to so many in the transgender community and

has been a pioneering agitator and  ghter for rights of transgender persons.

I also wish to thank my wife, Donna; my son, Jeremiah; and my sister,

Dot for their support of me and encouragement to me.

I also wish to thank the many transgender, lesbian, and gay friends I have

made since transitioning for their encouragement, acceptance and support

and the many straight allies for their support and encouragement.

For any glory that comes of this labor, may it be to God.
