Nancy McGee
Explorer and filmmaker Nancy McGee lives a life of adventure and diversity. Known as Ms. Exosuit, AKA the Pachyderm Princess, she is the first female Exosuit pilot as well as a magazine centerfold (next to a 3000 lb. swimming elephant). The Explorers Club recognized her with a Fellowship for her explorations, which include filming in locations so remote that local natives have never before seen Western people. Nancy’s expeditions have launched several regions to responsible eco-tourism, including the Andaman Islands (India) and the Forgotten Islands (Indonesia). She has dived seven continents in a marine career spanning more than 40 years. Nancy attained the rank of PADI master instructor.
Nancy produces, edits and films her own documentaries with a focus on conservation and education. She is a frequent contributor to dive journals and is a featured speaker and emcee for national and international shows, film festivals and schools. Nancy was inducted into the Women Divers Hall of Fame in 2008 and is the first female Exosuit pilot.
