The very existence of transgender people has come under fire in recent years, with heated debates over trans individuals competing in sports and using public restrooms. But 2025 will be the most sweeping rollback of trans rights yet.

Though high-profile trans individuals like Billy Tipton once went to great lengths to hide their gender identities in the mid-20th century, many celebrities in various fields are out and proud today. They have broken barriers, helping to advance social norms and attitudes toward LGBTQ+ people and gender. By using their profile and social status, these trans celebrities have acted as guiding lights to young LGBTQ+ people all over the world.

In a time of increased scrutiny and backlash, celebrating these stars and the important work that so many of them are doing is more important than ever. Stacker compiled a list of 35 prolific transgender celebrities, covering not only their backgrounds and bodies of work but also detailing any famous firsts they accomplished through their work and activism, if applicable.

These figures are actors, musicians, models, athletes, artists, and influencers. They are prominent not only for being transgender individuals in their fields but also for contributing to and advancing them.

Through the hardships and obstacles they faced from peers and society, these figures have emerged in the mainstream, paving the way for more LGBTQ+ people to follow. Read on to see which celebrities you recognize and whose work you have followed...

My next-door neighbor bought me a book as a birthday gift.

The book is "Transgender Warriors: Making History from Joan of Arc to Marsha P. Johnson and Beyond" by Leslie Feinberg (author of Stone Butch Blues). This is the 25th Anniversary Edition.

I have just started it, and it promises to be a good read.
