The Suits Me: The Double Life of Billy Tipton, is a really good read.

It has been quite a long time since I read the book, but if I recall correctly, there may have been some transphobia present...like his ex-wife denied ever knowing he was born a female (and some stuff indicating that really the only reason that he presented as male was to be succesful as a musician)? Something like that? Or maybe I am thinking of another situation....I remember reading about a case from the 1800's where a wife claimed to not know, so maybe I am mixing it up with that...

(not that it isn't possible that partners wouldn't know...just sayin')

Regardless, a good book to pick up.
