Schuyler Bailar: podcast appearances and interviews

Schuyler Miwon Hong Bailar, born in 1996, is an American swimmer, author, educator, and advocate for LGBTQ rights. He is recognized as the first openly transgender NCAA Division I swimmer and the first publicly documented transgender man to compete in any sport at the NCAA Division I level as a male athlete. Bailar was recruited by Harvard University to swim on the Harvard Men's Swimming and Diving team under coach Kevin Tyrrell. He was a member of the Harvard Class of 2019. Bailar began his swimming career as a member of the Harvard Women's Swimming and Diving team, having been recruited in 2013 by Harvard Women's Swimming and Diving head coach Stephanie Morawski. During a gap year, Bailar transitioned, which resulted in an offer from coach Tyrrell to join the men's team, allowing him the choice of either team. He chose to compete on the men's team, marking a significant milestone in sports and LGBTQ advocacy.
