Comedian Ian Harvie spoke at Fordham on Feb. 18 to tell the story of how he became a transgendered person.  The speech was sponsored by PRIDE Alliance.

Harvie is an established comedian, known for raunchy jokes and poking fun at his situation; however, during the lecture he stepped back from the raunchiness and instead gave a light-hearted biography of himself, the man formally known as Janet Harvie.
