Veronica Friedman’s papers cover the time period from 1980 through 1982, the year of her gender transitioning, and consist primarily of diary entries, written notes, and correspondence with her family and roommate-friend-sometimes lover. Her papers document her coming to terms with her gender and sexual identity, with new perceptions of herself and the world, and at the same time with the world perceiving her in a different way.
