Information About

Andrew Martinez




Andrew Martinez, nicknamed '''The Naked Guy''', grew up in Cupertino , California . After graduating from high school, and before moving to Berkeley, he walked down Highway 9 in the nude for about a mile and a half, before police responded. This was his first time walking Nude In Public .

While attending classes at University Of California, Berkeley he gradually began to take more and more clothes off while he attended classes until eventually he started to go naked. He staged a nude-in with the X-plicit Players , a performance art/activist group in Berkeley that has done many public nude events.

UC Berkeley eventually kicked him out, after issuing its "Policy Statement Concerning Public Nudity and Sexually Offensive Conduct" on 7 December 1992 . Andrew continued living in Berkeley, and was arrested for public nudity by the city of Berkeley. He fought the charges, and won. For many months, it was legal to walk around nude in Berkeley, until the city later passed a law against it. His actions were widely covered in the media.

It is unknown what he has been doing since his days at school in Berkeley.
