Talk:Willmer "Little Ax" Broadnax
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not sure if this is a stub or not -- it's now the most complete account on the web, as far as I can tell. It is the only one which mentions the fact that Broadnax was a woman, though this is discussed in Heilbut's essay. Once you know, it's blindingly obvious from his pictures and his singing.
I've referred to him as "he" throughout, since that was obviously his preference.
I wish I knew more about this topic -- Heilbut doesn't even give the date of death. If anyone has more info, that'd be great.

A little research has turned up date of death. NoahB 19:16, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
i reworded "was a woman" to "was female-bodied" to reflect that while he might have had female physical anatomy, he identified as the male gender and so was not a woman. --Emily 02:28, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
