In this 24th episode of Oh Boy, we meet Silas Howard, the first Trans director to work on the critically acclaimed show Transparent. He takes us through his creative path, which led him to San Francisco in the 90s where he found his people in the queer punk scene. Around age 28 the itch it express himself in a new way became hard to ignore. He wanted to make a film because he felt like there weren’t stories showing people like him and his friends. Without giving too much away, they did it. Sounds cool right? It is, so stop reading and start listening!
