Christine Kessler is a Los Angeles native and lives there today with her three Dachshunds . She's been firmly attached to the backside of a camera since she was 15, moving from film to digital in the early part of this century. Her first book, "Pervy Girls" was published by Goliath in 2007, her second, "Nylon Girls" has just been released in Europe and will hit shelves in the US early next year. Her work has also appeared in Taschen's "New Erotic Photography" as well as other books, in numerous magazines internationally, in gallery exhibits, and on countless websites, and she is currently writing a monthly article for the UK's Bizarre Magazine. Christine shoots prolifically and you can best enjoy her images by visiting her websites, ChristineKessler.com and MyFetishDiary.com. She is also an avid blogger and publishes stories and samples from each of her photo shoots at www.MyFetishDiaryBlog.com.

The Mission of the Center for Sex & Culture is to provide judgment-free education, cultural events, a library/media archive, and other resources to audiences across the sexual and gender spectrum; and to research and disseminate factual information, framing and informing issues of public policy and public health.

We envision the day when people around the world where there are no more stigmas and shame attached to our sexuality. Rather, sexuality is recognized as a birthright and as our life-force energy. To attain such a lofty vision it is vital that the resources, educational, and cultural programming we offer reaches many. And while our programming aims to reach all adults, we look to support those engaged in teaching and working with youth around issues of sexuality.
