The Gender Frontier

Transformations: Crossdressers and those who love them. Photographs from the 1980's. This series actually started in New Orleans on the last day of Mardi Gras,1978, when by fluke, I stayed at the same hotel as a group of crossdressers, one of whom became a friend. This chance meeting took me into a mostly closeted world of men who need to express their “feminine sides..” Realizing early on that I had stumbled upon something potentially liberating and almost completely misunderstood, I set out to de-freakify, and to offer a different view.
