How did Liz Carmichael pack so much into one life?
Carmichael is the counterfeiter-turned-car-executive featured in HBO’s hit documentary series,
The Lady and The Dale, directed by Nick Cammilleri and Zackary Drucker. The story is so full of remarkable twists and turns that it leaves you wanting to know everything about the woman.
Carmichael was involved in petty crime and graduated to the big time by counterfeiting U.S. bills in 1961.
She managed to elude authorities for years, faked her own death, married four times, had a total of 10 children raising five of them on the run and was eventually revealed to be a trans woman.
