Andrea Jean James (born January 16, 1967) is an American trans woman and controversial LGBT rights activist, film producer, director, and blogger.[1][2] Her views are cited by some activists but contested by others.[3][4]

Education and career

James grew up in Indiana and attended Wabash College, an all male school, where she majored in English, Latin, and Greek. After graduating in 1989, she obtained a master's degree in English language and literature from the University of Chicago.[5][6] After her MA, James wrote ads for Chicago advertising agencies, working in the business for ten years.[5] The experience encouraged her to become involved in consumer activism, with a particular interest in medical and academic fraud.[7]

In 2003, James co-founded Deep Stealth Productions, with her roommate, author and entertainer Calpernia Addams, to create content marketed to transgender people.[8][9] She hosted an instructional program, Finding Your Female Voice.[10] She produced and performed in the first all-transgender cast of The Vagina Monologues in 2004, debuting a new piece created by Eve Ensler for the occasion. She was also a consultant on and appeared in Beautiful Daughters, a documentary film about the event.[11][12][13]

James was a script consultant for Transamerica (2005), helping actress Felicity Huffman prepare for her role as a transsexual woman.[14][15][16] She appeared in the HBO documentary Middle Sexes: Redefining He and She (2005), and in 2007 directed a 7-minute film, Casting Pearls.[17] She was a consulting producer for, and appeared in, the reality-dating television series Transamerican Love Story, on the Logo digital channel in 2008.[18][19] In 2009 she directed another short film, Transproofed.[20]

In 2012 James co-founded Thought Moment Media.[21] She directed the 2015 Showtime concert film, Alec Mapa: Baby Daddy.[22][23]

In 1996 she created Transsexual Road Map, a consumer website for transgender people,[24] and later set up HairFacts, a website on hair removal, and HairTell, a companion discussion forum.[25][26]

In 2004 James founded the nonprofit GenderMedia Foundation.[27] She was appointed in 2007 to the Board of Directors of TransYouth Family Allies, a nonprofit that supports transgender youth and their families, and in 2008 to the Board of Directors of Outfest, where she was involved in the restoration of the documentary Queens at Heart.[28][29]

Notable controversies

James and Calpernia Adams at the Out and Equal Workplace Summit

James has written about consumer rights, technology, pop culture, and LGBT rights. She has contributed to Boing Boing,[7] QuackWatch, eMedicine,[30] The Advocate[31] and Wikipedia.[32] In a Huffington Post interview, James referred to herself as “one of the most prolific contributors in Wikipedia’s history. I haven’t edited in years, and I am still in the Top 40 for articles and redirects.”[33] Following a series of confrontations with other Wikipedia editors, however, she was banned from editing sexuality topics on WP, by unanimous vote of the site’s Arbitration Board in 2013.[34]

Together with Lynn Conway and Deirdre McCloskey, James was a driving figure in the controversy surrounding J. Michael Bailey's book The Man Who Would Be Queen (2003). Gender studies professor Kim Surkan said the protests by James and others against Bailey "represented one of the most organized and unified examples of transgender activism seen to date."[35][36]

Bailey cites evidence in his book that there are two forms of transsexualism: one a variant of male homosexuality, and the other a male sexual interest in having a female body, a taxonomy critics claim is inaccurate and damaging.[37][38] James wrote that the book was an example of academic exploitation of transgender people and a "cure narrative" framed by one case report about a six-year-old child.[39][40]

The dispute became heated when James posted a satirical page on her website containing photographs of Bailey's children alongside sexually explicit captions that quoted or parodied material in Bailey's book. Bailey accused her of harassment, as did Alice Dreger, a colleague of Bailey's at Northwestern University; Dreger tried to stop James from speaking at the campus about the controversy.[41][42][43][44] James responded that the page was intended to echo what she saw as Bailey's disrespect toward gender-variant children.[37]
