Ginger, formerly Gregory Blaze, was born in January, 1973 in Los Angeles, California and is a pre-operative transsexual. Growing up was very difficult for Ginger, especially in her school-age days. She was mercilessly teased by other children. Throughout her teenage years, even though anatomically she was a male, Ginger was extremely feminine, tall, very thin, and often was mistaken for being female, the unforgiving treatment she received from other students led to her eventually dropping out of high school. At the age of seventeen, Ginger moved to a part of town where other transgendered women helped her transition to the female gender, and she began living entirely as a female, even undergoing breast augmentation surgery. Ginger worked as a topless dancer to raise money for sex-reassignment surgery, until she got into an altercation with a customer. The altercation led to Ginger being fired on the spot and since that time she has been working as a prostitute on Hollywood Blvd. Ginger shares a corner of Hollywood Blvd. with her closest friend and roommate Sage Julep.
