Imogen Binnie

Imogen Binnie (born 1978 or 1979)[1] is an American transgender novelist and screenwriter who made her debut with the publication of Nevada in 2013.

The novel's plot centres around Maria, a trans woman leaving New York after a break up, and is intended to primarily address a transgender audience.

"[7] Binnie has published several short stories, including "Gamers", in Meanwhile, Elsewhere (Topside Press, 2017),[8] “If You Leave” in Videogames for Humans (Instar, 2017),[9] and "I Met a Girl Named Bat Who Met Jeffrey Palmer" published in the Lambda Award winning collection, The Collection: Short Fiction from the Transgender Vanguard (Topside Press, 2012).

Her early writing appeared in two zines she self-published, The Fact That It's Funny Doesn't Make It A Joke and Stereotype Threat.

[12] In 2021, Picador signed Nevada for publication in the UK for the first time, citing it as a "genuinely ground-breaking book, which has trenchant and inspired things to say about the trans experience".
