Andrea Horne has been a model, an actress and a jazz singer, but in San Francisco, she is most known for uplifting the transgender community by giving them a voice. Now she has also given the community a history to be proud of.'It is not about trans history, this is American history, it is LGBTQ history, it is Black history,' said Horne. 'Trans people need to know their history because we are constantly told we don't have a history.
'We are told we're awful, and we don't know our place in the world and then we come to find out that we were the fabulosity behind everything that was happening,' said Horne.Being fabulous is something Horne knows something about. Born in Los Angeles, she transitioned when she was 15 years old and moved to San Francisco where she worked as a model and actress, immersing herself in the cultural nightlife of the 70s.'I moved here because I had friends here,' said Horne.
