Frank Woodhull, after living for 15 years as a man, was inspected for tuberculosis at Ellis Island, where his birth name was found out. Woodhull is of English and Canadian descent. Woodhull expresses that although it may be "against the law" to be dressed and living as a man, he is resolute to remain Frank Woodhull and to not take back his birth name.
