Marci Bowers: Transgender Surgery Pioneer
By Ashley Neglia
http://www.aolhealth.com/health/sex-change-surgeonCalled a transgender "rock star" for her ground-breaking work in the field of genital reassignment, Marci L. Bowers, M.D. is not only one of the world's top sex-change surgeons, she's also a transgender woman.
Bowers, 51, was originally born with male genitalia, but if you ask her, she'll tell you that she had a hidden feminine side. While the rest of the world viewed her as a man named Mark, she always had a constant connection to her veiled femininity -- whether cross-dressing in private or simply wearing a pair of girls' socks.
