We take a cue from the recent AVN Awards to do a dip into the past. Let's go back in time to the 80s, when for the first time was organized the awards ceremony destined to become the red light industry's most important event. It was 1984 when the first edition took place, there no was the award for "Female Performer of the Year" will be set up in 1993 and the most coveted prize for the divas of porn was obviously that of “Best Actress". The first "Best Actress" in the history of the AVN Awards was Sharon Mitchell, who was rewarded for her interpretation in "Sexcapades". Sharon was one of those artists who really made history and fortune of porn. Born in New Jersey in 1956, she made her debut on the set in the mid- 70s. She was an exceptional performer with an overwhelming sexual charge. Her look - almost always wore short hair - and her ability to lead on the set every erotic situation to her liking, turned her in the early 90s in one of the top fetish porn star in the history of american porn, well-suited to the roles of mistress. I have a personal memory that binds me to Sharon Mitchell, she was among the actresses of the first porn movie I've seen in my life, "Desperate Women", which had as its main protagonist the exotic and sensual Tajia Rae. It is a film that has contributed so much to my love for porn, considering that at the time I had just turned 15 years (among other things in our first post dedicated to my personal "Porn Memories" I shared a clip from this film which had as its protagonist Tajia Rae Porn Memories - 1st chapter)
Returning to Sharon Mitchell, her detachment from industry was in rather tragic circumstances. On March 30, 1996 she was attacked and raped by a stalker who almost killed her. After that incident, she briefly left the adult industry, only to return to make sporadic appearances until retiring permanently in 2003 and earned a Ph.D. from the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality. She was the Director of the Adult Industry Medical Health Care Foundation , which she established in 1998 until it closed its doors in May 2011. Sharon Mitchell is one of twenty -five women of the Golden Era of adult films featured in the 2012 book , by author Jill C. Nelson, Entitled: Golden Goddesses: 25 Legendary Women of Erotic Classic Cinema, 1968-1985, published by BearManor Media. In almost 30 years of her career she interpreted more than 500 scenes and has directed 29 films.
