Harrison Browne

Harrison Browne is a pioneering professional athlete and advocate for transgender rights, best known for being the first openly transgender player in American professional team sports when he came out in 2016. He played for the Buffalo Beauts in the National Women's Hockey League (NWHL) and has been a vocal supporter of gender-diverse athletes, highlighting the challenges they face in sports. Browne's experience as a transgender man has driven him to speak out against discrimination, and he has collaborated with his sister, journalist Rachel Browne, to co-author 'Let Us Play: Winning the Battle for Gender Diverse Athletes,' aiming to educate and advocate for inclusivity in athletics.
