I'm Audacia Ray, media maker and sex worker rights activist.
I'm the founder of the Red Umbrella Project, which includes a monthly sex worker storytelling series in NYC, a weekly podcast, media/storytelling trainings, and media making. I'm also the program officer for online communications at the International Women's Health Coalition, where I edit the blog Akimbo. I'm a former sex worker, been blogging since 2004, and my book Naked on the Internet was published by Seal Press in 2007. I was an editor at $pread magazine from 2005-2008 and now do media and storytelling trainings with sex workers.
