Barry Gerard Prendergast (aka Zach or Zack and Zacchaeus Star) is a U.S. citizen who in February 1997 founded the Colorado non-profit corporation Family Services Colorado, Inc. In July 1999, Mr. Prendergast and his spouse Naomi Prendergast received the "Parents of the Year" award from the National Parents Day Foundation at a ceremony on Capitol Hill. Former members of The Family International who heard of the award identified Mr. Prendergrast as a member of the cult who had abused children at a Victor Camp in Italy in the 1980s. After inquiries from Houston Chronicle reporter Evan Moore and others, the Prendergasts returned the award. Mr. Prendergast also illustrated some True Komix and other Family Publications.
