Billy Tipton Jr., Kate Bornstein, Holden Bernstein, Ryan CassataSummary: Oscilloscope Laboratories Presents No Lorinda Man : The Billy Tipton Documentary Directed by Aisling Chin-Yee & Chase Joynt Written by Aisling Chin-Yee & Amos Mac Produced by Sara Spring Cinematography by Lena Mill-Reuillard Sound Recordist Lynne Trepanier edited by Aisling Chin-Yee Sound editing by Marie-Pierre Grenier Music by Richard Aucoin & Billy Tipton Produced by Parabola Films. American Jazz musician Billy Tipton developed a reputable touring and recording career in the mid-twentieth century, along with his band the Billy Tipton Trio. After his death in the late 80s, it was revealed that Tipton was assigned female at birth, and his life was swiftly re-framed as the story of an ambitious woman passing as a man in pursuit of a music carer. The genre-defying documentary No Ordinary Man seeks to correct that misrepresentation by collaborating with trans artist, As they collectively celebrate Tipton's story as a musician living his life according to his won terms, they paint a portrait of a trans cultural icon.
