    The first lady

    The fabulous April Ashley, the first person in Britain to have a sex change, has had a remarkable and decidedly non boring life. I reccomend her autobiography The First Lady as a really fun read. She started out in the navy before transitioning and along the way was a model, a drag queen, a cabaret performer, an actress, a campaigner for transsexual rights, and the lover of everyone from Peter O'Toole to Michael Hutchinson.

    And this week she got an MBE for services to transsexual equality.

      Her book is great. I think she was living in California when she finished writing it. But the Daily Fail says she lives in Fulham. If they do Queer Notions again, they should have her over. I'd love to see her in "An Evening with..." setting.

      I've read her book, such an inspiration!
