Yay! Congrats, Chaz!
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) is awarding Chaz Bono the Stephen F. Kolzak Award which recognizes an openly gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender media professional who has made a difference in promoting equality.
GLAAD president Mike Thompson said about the decision:
“Chaz has opened the door for countless others, reshaping the way Americans think about transgender people today. His bold leadership in sharing his story as a transgender man, as well as his tireless work to secure equality for every American, embodies the values of GLAAD├óΓé¼Γäós Stephen F. Kolzak Award.”
Chaz has always been very frank about being transgender – it was the focus of his reality show Being Chaz, and he is the only transgender contestant to ever be on Dancing With The Stars.
Inspiring…times, they are a changing├óΓé¼Γäó!
