In 1986 in Albuquerque, Nancy Ava Miller started one of the first S&M support groups, PEP—People Exchanging Power. Later, she traveled the land, creating other PEP organizations in DC, Tucson, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Baltimore, Denver, and St. Louis. Remember: this was pre World Wide Web and communion among kinksters was difficult back then! In addition, Nancy holds a Master's in Education from University of Maryland plus she taught public school in the Washington, DC area for ten years. She is a former professional writer/photographer, now the author of the award-winning Pervert: Notes from the Sexual Underground, an anthology, almanac, album, memoir, and history of her life in the sex biz, with over 101 mostly never before published photographs. She is a certified clinical hypnotherapist to boot, and today remains active in her cherished BDSM community while still leading PEP, which continues its support and love for perverts everywhere
