Suits me : the double life of Billy Tipton

For 50 years the jazz world - and three wives - believed that Billy Tipton was a man, but the musician was later revealed as a cross-dresser. This biography covers Tipton's early years in Oklahoma, the nights playing with Louis Armstrong's partner, and his/her extraordinary relationships.
