Toni Ebel (10 November 1881 - 9 June 1961) was a German painter, housekeeping staff of the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft, and one of the first trans women to receive gender-affirming surgery.

Around 1901 she fell in love with a man, which caused arguments with her family, so she left home for Munich, where she studied painting.

[1] After Olga fell ill and died in 1928, Ebel, who lived and worked as a painter first in Berlin-Steglitz, then in Wedding, decided to transition.

With the support of Magnus Hirschfeld, Ebel underwent five gender confirmation surgeries conducted by Erwin Gohrbandt, Felix Abraham [de] and Ludwig Levy-Lenz.

[1] In 1931, Felix Abraham published a paper giving the details of the vaginoplasty operations on Ebel and Dora Richter in Zeitschrift für Sexualwissenschaft und Sexualpolitik.

[1] The same year, Ebel and Charlaque hosted Swede Ragnar Ahlstedt [d], who wrote about them in the book Män, som blivit kvinnor (Men, who became women), but they did not mention Richter to him.

[2] After the end of the war, Ebel lived in East Germany, where she received a small pension as a victim of the "racial prejudice" of National Socialism, and continued to work as a painter.

She was a member of the Association of Visual Artists of East Germany and was represented at the German art exhibitions in Dresden in 1953, 1958/1959, and 1962/1963.
