Dr. Jane Traies, from Brighton, England, has lived through defining moments of LGBTQ+ history.  In her late-60s, Jane earned a Ph.D. in Gender Studies from the University of Sussex. For the past ten years, Jane has devoted her writing career to documenting oral and life history about the lives of older Lesbian women. Jane describes herself as “an old historian [who] is putting my generation back on the map” through speaking and writing. She is an advocate for the Lesbian Immigrant Support Group, a grassroots organization that offers support to lesbian and bi women seeking asylum from the violent homophobia of their home countries.  Jane’s latest book, Free To Be Me, features experiences of immigrant women in the UK.
