ezs note:  Hooray for The Star! (Toronto)  It's about freakin' time a major newspaper printed out a concise, thoughtful spread on how to correctly write a transgender person's name and pronoun.  (And it's so damn easy...)  Might I suggest that you e-write - whether it's The New York Times or the Podunk Patriot - a friendly note, followed by a paste of The Star's blog. It's as follows:

This may make a real difference! Thanks.
