Her unapologetic authenticity and trailblazing presence in the entertainment industry paved the way for future generations of transgender and gender-nonconforming performers. She passed on September 8, 2016 and remains an enduring symbol of resilience, self-expression, and Southern charm.

Beyond the stage, Chablis was an outspoken advocate for transgender visibility and LGBTQ+ rights. She chronicled her journey in her 1996 memoir *Hiding My Candy: The Autobiography of the Grand Empress of Savannah*, which provided an intimate look into her life, struggles, and rise to fame.

Her career reached new heights when she played herself in Clint Eastwood’s 1997 film adaptation of *Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil*, further solidifying her status as an LGBTQ+ icon.

She gained widespread recognition as the star performer at Club One, where her sharp wit, bold personality, and glamorous stage presence made her a beloved entertainer.

Born Benjamin Edward Knox on March 11, 1957 in Quincy, Florida, she later adopted the name Chablis and became a fixture in Savannah, Georgia’s nightlife scene.

Over her career, she has won multiple Grand Slam titles in both singles and doubles, often teaming up with Serena to become one of the most successful doubles duos in history.

In the early 2000s, she won back-to-back Wimbledon and U.S. Open titles in 2000 and 2001, along with an Olympic gold medal in singles at the 2000 Sydney Games. Venus was instrumental in pushing for equal prize money in tennis, successfully advocating for gender equality at Wimbledon in 2007.

By the time she turned professional in 1994, Venus had already gained attention for her athleticism and aggressive game. She quickly rose through the ranks, reaching her first Grand Slam final at the 1997 U.S. Open, becoming the first Black woman to do so in the Open Era.

Born on June 17, 1980, in Lynwood, California, she was introduced to tennis at an early age by her father, Richard Williams, alongside her younger sister, Serena.
