Dawn Langley Pepita Simmons (Oct. 15, 1937 – September 18, 2000) was an Intersex Transwoman woman born Gordon Langley Hall in Sussex as the illegitimate son of Vita Sackville-West's chauffeur and another servant. She was raised by her grandmother and then adopted by Margaret Rutherford and her husband Stringer Davis in 1962, when she was already 25 – among her later published works being a biography of Rutherford. Then, after having one of the first sex-change operations in America, she married a black chauffeur in Charleston, in one of the first interracial marriages in South Carolina.
