The results of an extensive study of the eighth-magnitude G star HD 8358 employing optical photometry and spectroscopy, as well as UV observations with the IUE satellite, are presented. The star is found to be an active chromosphere binary with orbital and photometric period of 0.516 days. It exhibits photometric variability of 0.1-0.2 mg in V, due to starspots. At times the light curve is stable for several months, indicating that the spots persist essentially unchanged for more than 200 rotations. At other times, the spot configuration changes in a month or less. HD 8358 is an unusual member of the 'short-period' group of active chromosphere binaries due to its high space velocity and its very broad and highly variable H-alpha emission.
