Luke Feck and Chris Amatos write, “Franklin, born Peter D. Franklin in Bournemouth, England, in May 1932, transitioned in March 2003, explaining that, ‘For many years I felt as though I was born into the wrong body. Now, my mind and body are at peace with one another. That is the only way I can explain it.’
“After her transition, she became active in the LGBTQ community, helping others transition. She also was active with the Mid-Ohio Food Bank, where she helped coordinate the annual golf fundraiser for many years. She continued to write and published two true-crime books.
“Peter Franklin joined The Dispatch in 1981 and invigorated the Business department by bringing in new staff and infusing them with a new sense of direction. He won national prizes for his work. He retired from the paper in 1993 but continued a cookbook review column in collaboration with his wife, Eleanor.”
