Mark Storey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mark Storey is a board member of the Naturist Action Committee and has testified at anti-nudity legislation hearings all over the country.

As editor-at-large for Nude & Natural, The Naturist Society's magazine, he has written interesting and informative narratives of all the naturist events he has participated in or helped organize. He did a great piece on the nude beaches of Long Island on the East coast and participated in the Fremont Fresh Air Festival along with two other intrepid clothes free activists as nude bicyclers to much media attention.

He is a founding member of the Body Freedom Collaborative in Seattle whose goal is to bring attention for the need for legal clothing-optional beaches through "guerilla pranksterism", among other approaches.

In 1999 he led the effort to defeat Washington Senate Bill 5351, a measure that would have placed skinny-dippers on the state's list of sex offenders.

Mark is also author of a new book, Cinema Au Naturel: A History of Nudist Film.
