Laverne Cox
Born in Mobile, Alabama, Cox has balanced her work as a trans activist with a rising career as an actress. She became the first trans person nominated for an Emmy for her work on Orange is the New Black, and has made appearances on shows like Faking It and The Mindy Project. (In 2014, she became the first out trans person on the cover of Time magazine.)
Cox remains a steadfast advocate for the community—appearing in docu-series like Logo’s awarding-winning Laverne Cox Presents: The T Word, in which she interviewed young trans people about their journeys.
