Having suffered from gender-identity disorder since he was a child, Heyer was a married, successful businessman when he underwent cosmetic surgery to alter his sex at age 42.

However, Heyer said surgery and hormone treatment failed to address his underlying psychological issues. After undergoing therapy, attaining sobriety and turning his life to Christ, Heyer says he was able to accept his biology and return to living as a man.

Heyer, now 74 and married to his second wife for 18 years, is an author and public speaker who devotes his life to helping others who regret their choice to undergo what is known as “gender-reassignment surgery.”

A non-denominational Christian, Heyer has told his story in the novel Kid Dakota and the Secret at Grandma’s House and in his autobiography, A Transgender’s Faith. He also spreads awareness through his blog, WaltHeyer.com, and website, SexChangeRegret.com.

Mr. Huff was founder and CEO of Sensor Systems (later Overwatch) a company that creates leading commercial software products for medical, defense and intelligence applications. Overwatch was sold to Textron in 2006 at which time Mr. Huff left active management to pursue other interests, especially in green technologies. He identified energy conserving, disaster-resistant building technology as a critically needed component in a future of increasing energy prices. With that as a driving force, he searched for practical technologies that could significantly improve the performance of both residential and commercial scale structures. Mr. Huff constructed two buildings using Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF), one using TF System’s original ThermoForm vertical ICF, and another using a block ICF. After careful analysis of thermal properties, labor productivity, flexibility of reinforcement, and the accuracy of the finished product, he concluded that a substantial modification of the vertical system had the potential to build radically more efficient structures. Subsequently, Mr. Huff made an equity investment in TF System, which holds the patents on vertical ICF, and collaborated with Gerald Spude to design and patent TransForm - enabling a new generation of practical super-insulated concrete structures.

Mr. Huff is a graduate of Hampden-Sydney College with a BS in physics and the California Institute of Technology with a MS in physics. He is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and manages the Huff Family Foundation.
