Timeline
Until 2001, Boylan published under the name James Boylan. She has written thirteen books, including novels, collections of short stories, and her autobiography. She has also contributed to the op-ed section of The New York Times. Her autobiography, She's Not There: A Life in Two Genders, was praised by Scott Tobias of The A.V. Club, who described it as a "candid and exuberantly funny memoir of self-actualization." Publishers Weekly described the book as "frequently poignant" but complained that it too readily glossed over the difficult prejudice that transgender individuals must face, causing the book to feel "incomplete." Boylan's memoir, Good Boy: My Life in Seven Dogs was published on April 21, 2020 with Celadon Books.

Boylan began her male to female transition in 2000, beginning with therapy, feminine clothing, and female hormone supplements. While undergoing sexual reassignment surgery, Boylan was convinced that her marriage to Deirdre would end. Today, the couple is still married and lives in New York City and Belgrade Lakes, Maine. Nine years after she began her transition, Boylan published an article for The New York Times stating that "my spouse and I love each other, and that our legal union has been a good thing – for us, for our children and our community".
