Transition Photos

Unable to trust the medical community for advice, trans men often document their transition through photography. This not only provides documentation of the individual's transition, but it also allows other trans folk to imagine what their own transition could look like. Below you will find photos of Lou Sullivan's transition. Donated to the GLBT Historical Society, which Lou helps to establish, Lou wanted his life and work to be able to mentor to GLBT individuals after his death. While some may use these photos inappropriately, in today's society where so much inaccurate information about transmen can be found on the internet, these photos continue to serve the educational purpose for which they were intended.
