Loren (1959- 2022)![]()
Marjorie’s nephew and Bobbi’s brother, Loren became a photographer and trans activist. He is best known for his book Body Alchemy, 1996, which documents the process of trans male transition, including his own.
While cis photographers such as Christer Strömholm, Andy Warhol, Walter Rutter, Brassaï, Mariette Pathy Allen had been taking pictures of trans persons as far back as the 1930s, Loren was the first trans photographer to be so recognized.
His work was also exhibited in San Francisco, Minneapolis, and Los Angeles.
He died by suicide at age 63 after a period of poor health.
