Buzz Bissinger’s Vanity Fair profile of Caitlyn Jenner is now available online. While the entire piece is worth a read, an especially poignant section depicts the morning after Jenner’s iconic Olympic decathlon win in 1976.
NOTE: Bissinger uses male pronouns (including in the excerpt below) to refer to Caitlyn Jenner before she transitioned.
From Vanity Fair:
“After Jenner woke up the next morning, he walked past the grand piano into the bathroom. He was naked. The gold medal was around his neck. He looked at himself in the mirror.
