Beyond that she's made comebacks in two separate decades.
Still, I'm sure there are those that have never heard of her. But fewer than any other porn stars.

| wcw43921 Senior Member Look Into My Eyes-- 1252 Posts 4/08 | Posted - Mar 3 2010 : 2:06PM Traci Lords could be said to be well-known to people who have never seen a porn movie--but that's because she nearly brought the industry down to ruins. Most inside the porn business consider her persona non grata. (I remember an interview with Gregory Dark in which he was asked about her. He replied, "Who is Traci Lords? I've never heard of her." An "un-person" moment that could have come straight from Orwell's 1984.) Now you might be able to find some people who recognize Tera Partick--she was usually the "go-to" star for the mainstream media when Jenna wasn't avaliable. And Sasha Grey has been in Playboy at least once that I know of, and she did win that Jenna Jameson crossover award, for whatever that's worth. There are many, many people who should know who Annette Haven and Seka and Vanessa Del Rio are, who should know who Ginger Lynn and Christy Canyon and Kristara Barrington are, who should know who Asia Carrera and Stacy Valentine are, who should know who Angel Kelly, Ebony Ayes and Heather Hunter are. There should be more people who know who Peter North and Sean Michaels are, know that there are actually handsome men who work in porn. Perhaps if more women knew that, they'd be less hostile towards their boyfriends' collections, and maybe even want to be in porn themselves. (Hey--it could happen.  )Hope that helps. _________________________________________________________ "There can never be too many beautiful women Hypnotized for our pleasure." [Link] |

She is a well known director at Evil Angel, has a large filmography, and was featured in a news magazine segment. I think one thing that must be considered is longevity in the adult business. sure there are many well known starlets performing today but will they be still known 5 or 10 years from now. Going by longevity one must consider Julia Ann. [Link] |

| Arditti Member 529 Posts 5/07 | Posted - Mar 3 2010 : 11:44PM Are Constance Money, Sharon Mitchell, Amber Lynn, Tiffany Minx, Nina Hartley, Rocco and Annette Schwarz contenders to the title? - In the 70's, Constance Money was as popular as Annette Haven was, but she has vanished from the scene once her carreer was over. - Sharon is still involved one way or the other in the business. - Although she is a strong choice, Amber Lynn has suffered from being the best known pornstar after Ginger and Tracy in the 80's. - Tiffany Minx was highly popular around 1990. - She has been in porn a long time, but Annette Schwarz lives in Germany and has a brilliant web carreer now. She did not stay long enough in the US. My choices : - Nina Hartley remains a very good choice. She has performed in more than 800 films over three decades : 80's, 90's, 00's. She became a director, a writer. She's my choice among women. - Rocco, I would say yes for sure. He has been in the business for a very long time and has performed in 400 films and directed close to 180. He has performed too in mainstream movies (Romance, among others). He's my Number 1.

| bsavage Member 112 Posts 1/10 | Posted - Mar 4 2010 : 12:49AM Rocco is like royalty in Europe. And what and by whom do you mean known? Not criticising, just wondering. Known amongst avid porn viewers, casual audiene, or people who have never watched any of the afformention in a scene? Are we talking about someone most people would recognize piddling around a mall? Just curious, interesting topic. [Link] |
Savoy  All-Star Member Sucker for Sinners 1844 Posts 12/06 | Posted - Mar 4 2010 : 7:47AM Several years ago before I became a fan or really had anything more than a passing interest in porn - I was most aware of Katie Morgan because of her multiple HBO appearances. Haven't seen anything from her in well over a year though. [Link] |

| AvyRox Member 777 Posts 2/08 | Posted - Mar 4 2010 : 12:14PM Today: Sasha Grey and Jenna Haze for the women. For the men I do not think that there is is one that I can pinpoint because, unless the men are lame, they are all pretty much interchangable. [Link] |

| duefuss Member Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious - Brendan Gill 723 Posts 4/09 | Posted - Mar 5 2010 : 12:48AM I know, I know. 'Betty page didn't do porn!' I beg to difer. When she was doing it, what she was doing was called pornography (I know. I was there). It's not her fault that, by today's standards, she'd hardly make it to an R rating, and the woman is a global icon of American erotica. [Link] |
| purplehayes2006 Member 391 Posts 4/06 | Posted - Mar 5 2010 : 10:10AM Also wanted to say that the 'non porn watchers' thing could maybe be used in the past, but not really anymore in the "Internet Era". Luis [Link] |

| ninja1 Senior Member 2939 Posts 1/08 | Posted - Mar 5 2010 : 1:05PM There's a high-ranking United Nations official named John Holmes. Whenever his name is mentioned in the news, I'm sure lots of listeners think of the pornstar, at least for a moment. [Link] |
