Get to know your local trans icon and trailblazer Lucy Hicks Anderson! Lucy was the first trans women in history to fight for marriage equality in court, was an award winning baker, and ran a bordello here in Ventura County. That’s in a nutshell, you won’t want to miss this MVC Insider!

Léo Rivera, former intern at the Research Library at the Museum of Ventura County, accounts the project they undertook chronicling the life of Lucy Hicks Anderson through newspaper clippings found in archived Oxnard Courier Press articles.
