Christine Jorgensen (born George William Jorgensen, Jr. 30 May 1926 The Bronx, New York City –, 3 May 1989) was famous in the USA for having been the first widely-known individual to have sex reassignment surgery (Copenhagen Denmark)—in this case, male to female.

The second child of George William Jorgensen Sr., a carpenter and contractor, and his wife, the former Florence Davis Hansen, Jorgensen grew up in the Bronx and later described herself as having been a “frail, tow-headed, introverted little boy who ran from fistfights and rough-and-tumble games”.
Jorgensen graduated from Christopher Columbus High School in 1945 and shortly thereafter was drafted into the Army.
After he was discharged from the Army, Jorgensen attended Mohawk College in Utica, New York, the Progressive School of Photography in New Haven, Connecticut, and the Manhattan Medical and Dental Assistant School in New York City, New York. He briefly worked for Pathé News.
there was a lovely and excellent movie made about christine:
