The head of NYC's first Office for LGBTQIA+ Affairs on "meeting the moment"
WNYC News | Mar 31
New York City’s first-ever Office for LGBTQIA+ Affairs will next month open under the leadership of civil rights attorney Taylor Brown.
Right now, Brown is an Assistant Attorney General in the Civil Rights Bureau of the New York State Attorney General's office. When she takes over the office in April, Brown will become the highest-ranking openly-trans person in the history of New York City government.
She spoke with WNYC's Morning Edition host Michael Hill about her plans, what "meeting the moment" means to her, and about what it's like to experience Transgender Day of Visibility in the public eye.
