Dora Richter, German transgender woman and the first known person to undergo complete male-to-female gender-affirming surgery (d. unknown)

Dora Rudolfine Richter was a German trans woman and the first known person to undergo complete male-to-female gender-affirming surgery. She was one of a number of transgender people in the care of sex-research pioneer Magnus Hirschfeld at Berlin's Institute for Sexual Research during the 1920s and early 1930s. She underwent surgical removal of the testicles in 1922, followed in 1931 by removal of the penis and vaginoplasty. It is unclear what happened to Richter after 1939, and both the cause and date of her death are unknown.
