[Interview with Roger T. Pipe, July 2000] I was kind of dipping my feet in the water with the Andrew Blake film. Then I decided I wanted to work with men. In my personal life I am not attracted to women at all. I can admire a beautiful woman, but I didn't feel comfortable working with women on that level. I treat the business like a business because I have a business mind. I really enjoy my work and my scenes and I think that's part of the reason why I haven't gotten burned out. I've been able to pick and choose to a great extent and that helps. Since I do have a nursing career to fall back on, I am not really forced to be in the business. I stay because I truly enjoy the work. Hide

[on informing her family of her porn career] Actually the conversation was last year at Christmas. I was like "Dad, I'm in the business," and he actually already knew. He had an idea because I started out doing nude modeling and I started out doing softcore, so it was kind of a [slow] transition. It was something that he kind of expected. Hide

I'm absolutely not repulsed by women; I'm not sexually attracted to women - there's a difference. I love men. I love making love to men, and in my personal life I've never been bisexual, and I have no desire to be bisexual. I do like beautiful women like everybody else. Hide

[Interview with Roger T. Pipe, July 2000] I did the fashion modeling in New York until I was 18, then I took four years off to go to school in Idaho. I got my degree in nursing. I'm an RN and have a BS in Microbiology. I wanted to attend the University of Southern California. That's why I moved out here. I got into modeling for financial reasons. I started doing the adult side after I was introduced to Suze Randall. I was a Penthouse Pet and I was in Playboy as well. I just started getting covers and centerfolds and it was a natural progression into videos. I had always had a fantasy about working in front of the camera. My first movie was by a man named Andrew Blake and it was a very softcore-type movie. I was easing my way into things and did some simulated stuff with other girls. Hide

To be really honest with you, I'm not really a fan of porno. It was definitely something I had fantasized about, like being in a movie, being in a porno movie. I just never thought that it would get this big. I hadn't even seen a porno till I was like 18, and I just remember the guy in it was Tom Byron, and I was like, "He's hot!" And to this day I've never worked with Tom. God bless you, Tom. But he's a nice guy and I'd really like to work with him if my contract and his contract permits. Hide
