"An intelligent and engaging book. Jamison Green, an extraordinary
activist and advocate for FTM transsexuals, demonstrates that he is
also an extraordinary writer. Green artfully blends the personal,
the informative, and the political, and grounds it all in a
generous vision of inclusive communities. He makes a thoughtful and
persuasive case for making gender visible."
--Joanne Meyerowitz, author of How Sex Changed: A History of
Transsexuality in the United States
"Jamison Green has given a great gift--based on experience born of
a great personal journey, he demystifies gender in a way that
transfixes the reader. The biological journey from zygote to
adulthood unfolds to challenge the neat little boxes into which our
culture drives gender each day. This is an essential contribution
to the growing body of literature on gender identity and
expression."
--Elizabeth Birch, former Executive Director, Human Rights
Campaign
"Jamison Green tells, with integrity, and in a moving and
thoughtful way, his story."
--Dallas Denny, Editor, Transgender Tapestry Journal
"When the premier trans-activist of a generation decides to write a
memoir, we should be grateful. When Jamison Green weaves his
personal and political experiences into a magnificent story it is
all the more reason to celebrate. Becoming a Visible Man shows why
he is a leading voice to a generation of transmen and transwomen
and why this issue should be on the top of the agenda for all of us
in the twenty-first century."
--Henry Rubin, author of Self-Made Men
