Boylan has been been married to the same woman for almost three decades — the couple had two sons together before she began her male to female transition in the year 2000. On an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, Boylan spoke about how her transformation affected her romantic relationship (you can watch the segment below).
While Boylan's lecture is free, attendees are required to secure tickets through HSU's box office. Details on that and more Thursday night options in your Lowdown listings farther south. —Andrew Goff
