Laverne Cox and M Lamar

Known for her role in the TV series, Orange Is the New Black, Laverne Cox made history in 2014 when she became the first transgender person to be nominated for an Emmy acting award.

Her brother M Lamar came into the spotlight for taking up her role as Marcus in Orange Is the New Black, which was a flashback to a transgender role [Sophia Burset] which was acted by his twin sister, Laverne Cox.
