South Florida radio
listeners are familiar with the comedy production personality
formerly known as Boca Brian from The Neil Rogers Show. The
phenomenal radio powerhouse that maintained double digit ratings in
the South Florida market (ZETA-4 FM, WIOD, and WQAM) for over twenty years.
“Boca” was
nationally syndicated by ABC Radio in the 1990's and provided the
innovative comedy and multifaceted production, including voicing, singing, and creating music for a wide range
of observational material.
Few were aware that the
“Voices” behind the comedy bit microphone were that of Boca Britany.
An
accomplished transgender individual with an extensive broadcasting
background and outgoing personality, Boca has been living a full time
transgender life for well over ten years. Her experience offers a
unique perspective on transgender life with a sense of humor and
fun.
The
only “genuine” transgender radio show host on the air, Boca
Britany served as Transgender Liaison for the Florida Atlantic University
College of Medicine Cultural Correctness and Standardized Patient
Program; Communications Director for the Broward County Department of
Health STD Prevention Program Office; and a committee member for Practicing
Physician symposiums.
Boca Britany's mission is to undo the damage of media typecasting which has contributed to the fear and misunderstanding of the mainstream public toward transgender individuals. She believes acceptance can be achieved by shedding light on responsible transgender individuals who are leading fulfilling and successful lives.
