CARSON CITY, Nev. — Karen Grayson, with shoulder-length blond hair, said she was born "Kevin Griffith" and spent most of her life being as manly as possible.

"Kevin" married and fathered two children. He worked as an auto mechanic, a director of photography in Hollywood and as a construction worker.

At that point, gender identity questions were still mostly a private matter. But when a co-worker allegedly discovered a letter revealing that "Kevin" saw herself as a woman, life as a gainfully-employed member of society ended.
