Ralph WertherRalph Werther (1890-1937) was an American author and performer, best known for his autobiographical works that explore his experiences as an androgyne and female impersonator. Wether's early life was marked by struggles with his gender identity, whic he later documented in his first book, "Autobiography of an Androgyne." He left his family in his late teens and began performing as a female impersonator in vaudeville shows, traveling around the country and developing his craft. "The Female Impersonators," his second book, offers an account of his experiences during his six years as a female impersonator in New York's underworld.
