FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Former Stanford University Topless Candidate Promotes Nude Art Film on the Internet

LOS ANGELES, CA - August 18, 2003 (INB) -- In 1968, Vicky Drake ran as the "topless candidate" for student body president of Stanford University. A topless dancer, she gained national notoriety for her campaign poster that featured a photo of herself standing nude on Mr. and Mrs. Stanford's tomb (http://www.abm-enterprises.net/whistlestop.html). Vicky, who is now married to American classical composer John Mitchell, is now promoting a new, somewhat controversial, independent short film, "The Beauty of Touch," directed by Toronto filmmaker Jonathan Robbins and produced by Colin M. Davis.

The film's uninhibited choreography was an interpretation of the music provided by John Mitchell's piano trio. Nude dancers beautifully perform the modern dance movements. "The Beauty of Touch," which has been accepted in various film festivals and is accessible through various media, is also available on Mitchell's website, at http://www.abm-enterprises.net/touch.html.

Although this film may be seen as controversial, it is a work of beauty," said Ms. Drake. "It is art, not pornography, and can be viewed in any school or library. I have always believed that the body is beautiful," Drake added. "This film is a tribute to the music and the human body." For more information on "The Beauty of Touch," Vicky Drake, or John Mitchell and his works, please visit http://www.abm-enterprises.net/index.html.
