She's a nationally recognized speaker, author and activist, not to mention a computer whiz and a knockout in an evening gown. As well spoken as she is outspoken, trans activist Donna Rose has served on several national boards, presented on trans issues all over the country and authored a popular book, Wrapped in Blue, about her gender transition from male to female. Now Donna Rose will be appearing at Denver PrideFest 2008 as the Grand Marshal. I caught up with her before her appearance here to ask her about the T in GLBT, the importance of community and her resignation from the HRC board of directors amid the controversy of ENDA.
