Ted Mark is the pen name behind The Man from O.R.G.Y., a series of comic spy novels that parodied the James Bond craze of the 1960s. Starting with The Man From O.R.G.Y. in 1965, the 13-book series spoofed Cold War espionage with titles like Dr. Nyet, My Son, The Double Agent, and Room at the Topless.
Beyond the O.R.G.Y. series, Mark wrote the Laugh Romp series (including This Nude For Hire and The Nude Wore Black) and standalone novels with similarly playful titles. The books are products of their era — lightweight, humorous paperback originals that traded on the public appetite for spy fiction and comedy in the mid-twentieth century.
