Bif Naked was born in secret to a teenager living in India, the product of a Canadian girl and a British boy. She was rejected by both families, hidden away in a mental hospital, until being adopted by missionaries and moved to North America. Targeted by girl gangs and facing other abusive situations, she escaped by joining a punk rock band, but entered a downward spiral that found her on the floor of a Vancouver drug den.

Through it all, her creative personality and unstoppable humour were her weapons. She found her voice as a solo singer, started her own record company, and at twenty-three became an international recording artist. Throughout her remarkable career, Bif would captivate the imagination of audiences and media alike. Diagnosed with breast cancer, Bif would discover her passion for advocacy, as a triumphant survivor and someone who helps others first. Unabashedly honest, real, and in her own words. This is Bif Naked’s story so far . . .
