Episode Details

Alexandra Billings, a Transparent star, shares a heartfelt memory of Eric Dane, who passed away from ALS. They worked together on Greys Anatomy in 2006, a time when opportunities for transgender actors were scarce. Billings, playing a transgender character, was nervous about her monologue, but Dane, sensing her anxiety, offered support. He improvised by placing his hand on her shoulder, knee, and hand, and even stepped in to condense her monologue. Billings praises Dane as a kind ally and a true advocate for transgender stories.
