There’s also an option for tonight, Thursday, June 23rd as author SCOTTIE JEANETTE MADDEN and her wife Marcy Madden will appear at Seattle Town Hall and discuss Scottie’s memoir, Getting Back to Me: from girl to boy to woman with moderator Status Causey. It’s only $5 to attend. More info:

Like many late-stage trans women, Scottie Jeanette Madden didn’t seem to have any difficulty being a man. Beloved as husband, son, brother, and uncle by her family and well-respected as an adventure survival filmmaker, everything in her life screamed alpha male. In Getting Back to Me: from girl to boy to woman, Madden recounts her journey of love, acceptance, and honesty. In conversation with Seattle-based sex, gender, and relationships educator, Status Causey, the Maddens will discuss their experience as Scottie shook off 50 years of expectations from family, society, and self and worked to “dismantle the walls of her self-imposed prison.” This articulate and unflinching perspective sheds new light on the transgender experience from both sides of their 27-year marriage. These two women share the inspiring story of their enduring love as they redefine themselves as a new kind of family.

Event attendees are invited to stick around for a post-event reception and book-signing event with Scottie to kick off Pride weekend celebrations.

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
