Like the sibling comment, I saw the same work attributed to different names and got confused. When I was a kid, it was the kind of thing that was pretty much verboten to really discuss, but mockery was acceptable, so I can imagine it just wasn't really spoken about and I'm sure hampered her career.
The BBC has an archived interview[0] where I believe she was wearing fake sideburns to keep up a more masculine appearance in public while transitioning. The effect is a bit odd.
I actually first came across her work perusing the public library and actually found the technical excellence of her playing combined with the simplistic sounds of the early synths to be a bit off-putting; it sounded like a 90's midi file. But I could certainly imagine the interest of that in the 60's, and while it's grown on me a bit since then, I can see why it hasn't aged particularly well.
