Meet the Author: Diana Goetsch
Monday, June 27th, 7:00 PM
Room 138, Tufts Library
Diana Goetsch’s This Body I Wore chronicles one woman’s long journey to coming out, a path that runs parallel to the emergence of the trans community over the past several decades. Goetsch has written not a transition memoir, but rather a full account of a trans life, one both unusually public and closeted. All too often trans lives are reduced to before-and-after photos, but what if that before photo lasted fifty years?
You may have heard Ms. Goetsch's recent interview on NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross.
