Patricia Anne Morgan (also known as Patricia Anne Glavocich,[1] born 12 March 1939[2][3] – died 1986?[1]) was an American businesswoman and former sex worker who became, in the early 1960s, one of the earliest people to undergo gender reassignment surgery in the United States.[4]
She was one of the patients of the pioneering surgeon Elmer Belt.[5] In 1973, she published her autobiography, The Man-Maid Doll,[3][6] in which she describes her experience of early experimental surgery in detail.[7]
