Gregory Hemingway
Gloria Hemingway (born Gregory Hancock Hemingway, November 12, 1931 – October 1, 2001) was an American physician and writer who was the third and youngest child of author Ernest Hemingway. A good athlete and a crack shot, Gloria longed to be a typical Hemingway hero and trained as a professional hunter in Africa. But her alcoholism prevented her gaining a license, as it also cost her her medical license in America. Gloria maintained a long-running feud with her father, stemming from a 1951 incident when her arrest for entering a bar "in drag" caused an argument between Ernest and Gloria's mother Pauline. Pauline died from a stress-related condition the next day, which Ernest blamed on Gloria and Gloria later discovered to have been caused by Ernest. Her bestselling 1976 memoir of her father, ''Papa: A Personal Memoir'', was seen by some to reflect troubles of her own. These included wearing women's clothes, which she ascribed to gender dysphoria. Early life Born in Kansas ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Transgender Woman
A trans woman or a transgender woman is a woman who was assigned male at birth. Trans women have a female gender identity, may experience gender dysphoria, and may transition; this process commonly includes hormone replacement therapy and sometimes sex reassignment surgery, which can bring relief and resolve feelings of gender dysphoria. Like cisgender women, trans women may have any sexual orientation. The term ''transgender woman'' is not always interchangeable with ''transsexual woman'', although the terms are often used interchangeably. ''Transgender'' is an umbrella term that includes different types of gender variant people (including transsexual people). Trans women face significant discrimination in many areas of life, including in employment and access to housing, and face physical and sexual violence and hate crimes, including from partners; in the United States, discrimination is particularly severe towards trans women who are members of a racial minority, who oft ...

Accession Number (library Science)
In libraries, art galleries, museums and archives, an accession number is a unique identifier assigned to, and achieving initial control of, each acquisition. Assignment of accession numbers typically occurs at the point of accessioning or cataloging. The term is something of a misnomer, because the form accession numbers take is often alpha-numeric.Witt, B.S., Whittfield, J.C., Stepansky, A.J. (2012) ''Pastperfect software for museum collections: Version 5 users guide.''
