Nick Adams is an FTM person who is the entertainment media manager for GLAAD (Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation), the GLBT community's leading media watchdog and activist agency. We talked with Nick briefly about GLAAD, and at length about some of the representations of transpeople in the media in recent years.
If you have seen a trans representation on television, in the movies, or in your local newspaper which you find particularly good or bad, Nick and GLAAD are interested in hearing about it. Email Nick with the details at adams@glaad.org
