Publisher's Note
Jazz musician Billy Tipton grew up as Dorothy Tipton but lived as a man from the time she was 19 until she died at age 74. Tipton's death made news all over the world, not because he was celebrated as a musician but because the scale of his deception: he had "married" five women and had reared several adopted children. 60 photos.

Industry Reviews
"A reminder, as if one were needed, that there is nothing simple about love."
Washington Post Book World - Jonathan Yardley (05/31/1998)

"'Suits Me' is so fixated on the technical aspects of sex...that it fails to examine the larger, and far more interesting, issue of our selective blindness when it comes to love."
New York Times Book Review - Holly Brubach (06/28/1998)
