Champagne at Three - The Story of a Trans Mining Engineer

Join us in celebrating the launch of Champagne at Three: The Story of a Trans Mining Engineer. 

Having lived the first half of her life as male, Rebecca Norton sought medical intervention to become a woman, only to find that those whose support she longed for could not, or would not give it. Born in Ballarat, her career took her from the mining industry in Mount Isa to a range of jobs in remote parts of Australia and the world. 

Written by her sister, Dr Jill Lee, this is the biography of Rebecca Norton. Rebecca was one of the first gender reassignment patients in Victoria in the 1970s and worked as a mining engineer before and after her transition.
