Alan Hart's 1908 undergraduate transcript from Albany College. Albany College was, at the time, a Presbyterian college in Albany, Oregon; it later became Lewis & Clark College, relocated to Portland, and ceased to be religiously affiliated. Dr. Alan Hart (1890-1962) was an American physician, novelist, and trans man. Hart devoted his professional life to the study and treatment of tuberculosis, particularly its diagnosis via X-ray. He was also the author of four novels on medical themes and a nonfiction book about X-rays. As a child, Hart presented as a boy when possible, and published his writing using his initials or the name Robert Allen Bamford. During his education, he wore traditionally feminine clothing before adopting a male identity permanently in his 20s. Hart began medically transitioning during medical school and lived as a man from the late 1910s until his death.
