Who would have thought, 10 years ago, that this is where I'd end up. Catch up on 10 years of YouTube blogs in this touching tribute. Erin (AKA Grishno) was the first transgender person to document her transition on YouTube, and manages the longest running YouTube channel focused on Transgender issues. Biography: Originally born and raised in Utah, Erin Armstrong transitioned from male to female and moved to New York City at the age of 20. While in NYC she began doing online advocacy for the transgender community via youtube, and has had her work featured in Rolling Stone Magazine and The Advocate. Her video channel now boasts more than 10,000 subscribers, and has documented her transition for over 7 years. With over 5,000,000 views, Erin has been able to reach a world wide audience, to help support other transgender people, and education non-trans folk about the issues facing the transgender community.
I've had the opportunity to meet some of the most incredible people. Luckily, I caught some of it on film.
