Laverne Cox is an Emmy-winning actor, producer, advocate, and one of the defining cultural figures of our time. She became internationally known for her groundbreaking role as Sophia Burset on the television show Orange Is the New Black, a performance that made her the first openly transgender person nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award in an acting category. Since then, she has continued to expand what visibility can mean as an actor, a producer, a host, a speaker, and an artist whose work insists on complexity, dignity, glamor, truth, and humanity. Her brand new instant New York Times bestselling memoir, Transcendent, offers a portrait of an artist whose life has been shaped by survival, discipline, beauty, and truth. We welsome Laverne Cox, to a very special live episode of Design Matters at the Pride Book Fair in New York City.
