Michelle's Story

Well, most of you that knew me in high school knew me as Michael Callahan. After I graduated from Tinley I set out on a long journey that finds me now living in Arizona. The big difference now though is that I am Michelle Callahan. I got divorced because of the change after 16 years of marriage. Sadly I lost more than my marriage. I lost most of my friends and all of my family including my children who I have not talked to in five years. Now before anyone goes judging me you should at least educate yourself about transexuals- and I'm not talking about the Gerry Springer type. I have a large circle of transgender friends that have normal everyday jobs at places like Honeywell and Intel. I am an art teacher now and I have been for 15 years. I transitioned at my school last year and I am now in my second year as Michelle. I started my transition in 2001. It is my teaching position that brought my last big adventure about.

the summer I was in a documentary about teachers that transition in American schools. Not to brag but my story was the most positive one the director had heard in the whole country so almost half the film was filmed here in Arizona. Because more than half was filmed here it will qualify to be in the Phoenix Film Festival. To be completely honest with you- I feel like I am living a dream now. Despite my loss, which was necessary to my surviving, I have never been happier. The class of '80 voted me "Most Ambitious Male" which I always thought to be ironic. That is going to be the title to my book. I think often about the people I graduated with and have fond memories of high school. I only hope that they are at least half as happy with their lives as I am with mine. See you at the reunoin which I hope someone back there is planning. I have 2 videos on you tube.
