Anne Ogborn is a transgender rights activist who was born in Salina, Kansas in 1959. According to Patrick Califia she "should be credited as a forerunner of transgender direct action groups."[1] She is a software engineer.[1]

Transgender activism

Ogborn was an early practitioner of direct action in support of transgender rights.[1] For instance, in 1991, transsexual woman Nancy Burkholder was expelled from the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival, a preeminent lesbian event. Ogborn coordinated a direct action, Camp Trans, to protest the transphobia of the festival leaders.[2]

The first transsexual organization that Ogborn founded was KCGS, the Kansas City Gender Society. Ogborn started Transgender Nation,[3] the transgender focus group of Queer Nation in San Francisco which included a new transgender caucus to fight transphobia in local debates.[4] In 1993, Ogborn and Transgender Nation members protested the American Psychiatric Association's listing of transsexualism as a psychiatric disorder, and medical colonization of transsexual people's lives.

Ogborn was an early participant and organizer of the New Womens Conference, a retreat for post-operative transsexual women. She edited its newsletter, "Rights of Passage", which would later become the Transsexual News Telegraph.[5] Her involvement with the New Womens Conference informed much of her later work.

Ogborn joined the Hijra community[6] in 1994.

She continues her activism for transgender and human rights.[7]
