Made It Home

My name is Julia Brightly. 

It is my legal name, changed in the New York courts in April 2011.

I also changed my gender from male to female.

Actually I have never been male.

I was just born into the wrong body.

It happens.


In 2002 I moved to New York City from London, England, the place of my birth, and changed my body and mind to the right one.

In June 2013, after a year in Los Angeles, I moved back.


Since becoming my true self after half a century I have written many articles, made a lot of music, produced some radio, knocked out a painting or two. 


When spring is in your eyes it’s time to get acquainted with everything you’ve been denying.

Put on your party dress, come dancing with me tonight.
