Maxine "Max" Adele Feldman (December 26, 1945 – August 17, 2007) was an American folk singer-songwriter, comedian[3][4][5] and pioneer of women's music. Feldman's song "Angry Atthis", first performed in May 1969 and first recorded in 1972,[6][7] is considered the first openly distributed out lesbian song[8] of what would become the women's music movement.[9][10] Feldman identified as a "big loud Jewish butch lesbian."[11][12]
In later years, according to partner Helen Thornton, Feldman held a gender identity that was "both/and" rather than "either/or."[2] Feldman had been comfortable with being labeled either "man" or "woman", and wore men's clothing on stage.[12]
