The authentic voice of LGBTQ youth culture meets the Disney star to talk cult sci-fi, Laverne Cox and why she's proud to be transgender – but it doesn't define her

Jazz Jennings is luminous. She loves mermaids, Stanley Kubrick movies and soccer. She's just started high school, and I would like to be her best friend.

Jazz was just six years old when the world learned her name. Giving an interview with her family to ABC journalist Barbara Walters in 2007, she instantly became one of the youngest people in the public eye to identify as transgender. Even more trailblazing was the fact that her entire family supported her. They didn't take Jazz's gender identity as a question, but more of a statement."
