Calpernia Addams

Calpernia Sarah Addams (born 20 February 1971) is an American author, actress and activist in the transgender community.

Life

Addams was born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee in a strict Christian fundamentalist household. After enlisting in the United States Navy as a teenager and serving four years as a field medical combat specialist stationed first in the Middle East during the Gulf War and later at Adak, Alaska, Addams returned to Nashville and began performing as a showgirl in a transgender revue. She began competing in pageants, as well as playing fiddle in traditional music bands. During this time she began her transition to living as a woman full-time.

The 2003 film Soldier's Girl is based on an event in Addams' life. Sign up now free. In 1999, she was dating an Army private named Barry Winchell, who began enduring harassment on base from fellow soldiers when rumors of the relationship began to circulate. After months of taunting and pressure, Winchell was murdered in his sleep over Fourth of July weekend, and two fellow soldiers were later convicted of the crime.

Addams was thrown into the national spotlight after the murder, which raised issues about the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy regarding sexual orientation. The media scrutiny she endured convinced Addams of the need for more positive portrayals of her community. She moved to Hollywood in 2002 and, with Andrea James, co-founded a production company known as Deep Stealth Productions, which was devoted to trans issues in entertainment and media. She continues to work as an actress and activist, and has been honored with several awards for her ongoing work in fighting the violence and discrimination faced by the LGBT community. datingsitecomparisons.
