Early life

Serenity was born in Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, and raised "everywhere from Maine to Mississippi", and moved to Las Vegas in the early 1990s.[1] She holds a degree in journalism.[3] She was a ballet dancer and waitress prior to entering the adult entertainment industry.[4][5]

Career

Serenity started out stripping and modeling for men's magazines.[4][5] Her first scene was with Alexis DeVell and PJ Sparxx in Jennifer Ate for Wicked Pictures in 1993.[1] Her first boy/girl scene was in The Temptation of Serenity.[5] She was a contract performer for Wicked Pictures between 1996 and December 31, 2001.[6] In September 2002, she signed a one-year, multi-picture deal with Hollywood Video.[7] She announced her retirement on September 22, 2004.[8] With the exception of her first boy-girl scene, she always shot with condoms.[9] AVN ranked her 36th on their list of "The Top 50 Porn Stars of All Time".[10] She was also the first performer to win back-to-back AVN Awards for Best Actress - Video.[8]

Mainstream media appearances

Serenity worked as a correspondent on E! during her porn career.[11] She appeared in over twenty specials for Wild On!.[5][8] In 1999, she appeared alongside Julia Ann in a skit for The Man Show.[12] That same year, she appeared on Good Day L.A. reporting from Erotica LA. alongside Stephanie Swift.[13] She made another appearance on the show shortly after.[14] In 2000, she made appearances in Action and Frank Chindamo's The Dalai Camel.[15] The Dalai Camel is part of an anthology titled Love Bytes.[16]

Other ventures

In June 1999, Serenity launched Las Vegas Novelties, a sex toy manufacturer.[17] She co-founded it with Mark Goodman.[18] In 2001, she purchased Goodman's half of the company and became its sole proprietor.[18] Las Vegas Novelties was acquired by Pipedream Products in March 2005.[19]

In November 2002, Serenity, Peter Chan, and Steve Lane launched C & L Wholesalers, a Canberra, Australia-based company that sold adult products such as condoms, personal lubricants, and sex toys.[20]

In May 2000, Serenity began reviewing pornographic films for Adult DVD Empire.[3] She was also the publisher, as well as a columnist, for Showgirls magazine.[4]

Advocacy

Serenity is a strong supporter of PETA.[11] She has done fundraising auctions for PETA as well as radio and television interviews on their behalf.[21] A photo of her wearing fake snakeskin chaps and a pleather corset was featured in PETA's Shopping Guide to Nonleather Products, which was released in October 2001.[22] She's been an outspoken proponent of vegetarianism and received a nomination by PETA for Sexiest Vegetarian in 2003, five years after she became a vegetarian.[21]

Personal life

Serenity identifies as bisexual.[1] In 2003 the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper said, "Serenity, a feminist adult industry company executive, has become an unwilling poster girl for the gender power shift in an industry historically associated with exploitation."[23] She married her business partner, Steve Lane.[19] In September 2004, she was in her third trimester of pregnancy with their first child.[8]
