Description:
Brings together a wealth of research and an expansive selection of photographs to create an enduring account of America's first known trans network, Casa Susanna.




In the 1950s and 60s, an underground network of transgender women and cross-dressing men found refuge at a modest house in the Catskills region of New York. Known as Casa Susanna, the house provided a safe place to express their true selves and live for a few days as they had always dreamed - dressed as and living as women without fear of being incarcerated or institutionalized for their self-expression.




This book opens up that now-lost world. The photographs - mostly discovered by chance in a New York flea market in 2004 - chronicle the experiences of men who dressed as women, gender nonconforming people, and transwomen in states of relaxation, experimentation, connection and joy. All of this was made possible by Susanna Valenti who - on her own journey toward womanhood - created Casa Susanna, a protected space where others could crossdress and live freely as women. Supplementing the images are excerpts from Transvestia, a magazine that allowed those who had been cast out by a rigidly binary society to connect in a different medium.




The people who came to Casa Susanna found a spot where they could explore and celebrate their own and each other's femininity, as they could not do elsewhere. Their creations are also a reminder that there were, and still are, many ways to explore the boundaries of gender.

Smells amazing!
Color: 03# Gold
Love this! Soft glow with sunscreen and the fragrance and feel of the oil is delightful! Have not had it drip sunscreen and sweat into my eyes like so many sunscreens. It stays on and soaks in so nicely.

Surprisingly good
Color: 02# Rose Gold
This actually works, which I was surprised by as it's an oil. I was out in the sun for 3 hours and didn't burn. Shake well before use, of course. The micro glitter leaves the most gorgeous glow to the skin that shimers so lusciously in the sunlight. My only complaint is that it's a little sticky when it dries down, but that won't stop me from using it.

I have ordered this multiple times and love this product! I have used it for going to festivals to get some sparkles and glow and for every day. It doesn’t feel gross on your skin and is a great price.

Understated and pl
Color: 03# Gold
The sparkle effect is pretty muted and understated, which I appreciate. No adverse skin reaction and I have sensitive skin. I’m yet to test it in the sun
