Infos

The notorious Linda Lovelace was Americas first Queen of Porn, presiding over a fast-developing multi-billion-dollar film industry during the decadent 1970s. Her movie, Deep Throat, redefined the nations views on obscenity and was credited with changing Americas sexual attitudes more than anything since the 1948 Kinsey Report. But at decades end, Linda, in a complete about-face, emerged as one of the more compelling voices in the feminist movement, denouncing the degradations of her cinematic past.

Autor

Once hailed as "the Marcel Proust of Pop Culture," New York City resident Darwin Porter is acclaimed as America's leading celebrity biographer. He was deeply involved in the Linda Lovelace saga as it unfolded in the 1970s, interviewing many of its key players and raising money for the legal defense of Deep Throat's co-star, Harry Reems. To this ground-breaking biography, he brings inside information and a never-before-published revelation on virtually every page.
