Strong's concordance
By Phil Reese on May 17, 2012
http://www.washingtonblade.com/2012/05/17/strongs-concordance/ Eli Strong is a Washington-based trans-masculine University of Alabama fanatic and family man who became a television star and local hero last week thanks to a groundbreaking National Geographic documentary, "American Transgender."
"I really appreciate all of the attention its been getting." Strong told the Blade this week via phone when we called to chat about the reaction to the documentary, which took audiences into the lives of three transgender people living in different places around the country.

When it comes to his involvement in "American Transgender," though, Strong says he and other trans leaders were "gun-shy" about the special before it aired based on prior television portrayals of the trans community that had been deemed "distasteful" or that "pushed someone to answer questions that they weren't comfortable with."
