Dee’s first chance at a pure lesbian (girl/girl) scene came with Crystal Knight in Sista #7. (The number “7” plays a big role in Dee’s life as you can see.) At this point Dee had still not really been with a girl in her personal life, although she remembers feeling anxious simply because she “didn’t want to disappoint Crystal.” To understate the obvious for anyone that knows of her career, we may note that Dee quickly took to the Sapphic lifestyle. “You’ve licked pussy before. I can tell,” Crystal said at the end of the scene.

Dee giggled and confessed, “You’re my first!”

Dee’s first major magazine spread appeared in the aptly-titled Pictorial. Her first cover to hit the streets ended up being for Hustler, interesting perhaps because that magazine has featured Dee on its cover more than any other single publication, having received the honor “three or four times.” (The humility that comes with not being able to remember how many major magazine covers you have graced typifies Dee’s charm and point of view.) For those keeping track, Dee has also graced the pages of Club, Black Tail, Sista, High Society and a “bunch” of others. Not surprisingly, Dee has also been on the cover of AVN (Adult Video News) Magazine several times.

As time, and shoots, and convention after convention rolled on, Dee lists meeting Juli Ashton on Playboy TV’s Night Calls as the biggest turning point in her professional life. They struck up a strong friendship, Dee eventually relying on Juli’s experience and guidance accepting a role that included performing a DP scene in Ashton View’s Screen Play. The scene called for Dee to wear a strap-on (which she’d never done), and to do Juli in the butt (also which she’d never done). Ever the patient mentor, Juli expertly coached her young student through exactly what to do! (The scene, by the way, reigns as an all-time classic for reasons, not the least of which, include Dee’s wardrobe: Latex paint!)

Screen Play led to Dee’s favorite starring vehicle, Essentially Dee, also produced by Ashton View. As the title would indicate, Essentially Dee delves into the very private life of this Adult star, shooting closely with the Risqué Business team over the course of an entire year. Dee calls it a “life changing experience,” and says she learned a lot about herself while making this movie. Fortunately for all of us, a great deal of that evolution actually made it to the screen.

Dee later had a leading role in Passion’s Cove, a 26-show series that Playboy made for HBO. And Night Calls hired Dee to be one of their “Call Girls” — girls who fielded phone calls, and kept the callers on hold and interested until Juli and Tiffany could talk to them.

Dee also starred on 22 episodes of Naked Hollywood, a porn homage to Sex In The City. She recounts it as a “wonderful experience” saying it honed her acting ability, and she loved working with the great crew and the magnificent talent on the show.

Her first producing/directing gig came with Wicked Pictures’ French Kiss, an opportunity she embraced because it provided “an outlet for her creativity” (not because she got to go shoot in Paris, France or anything). In the course of making this one little show, Dee discovered that she wanted to work behind the camera as well as in front of it. She could see a career in the industry that she had not considered before.

New motivation solidly pushing her, Dee hooked up a producing gig with Video Team. As half of “DeeVa” productions, Dee had lots of creative control over her endeavors, even though partnerships with loved ones can be “a bit of a pain sometimes, horrible others” according to her recollections. Of that time period, Dee recalls she enjoyed putting projects together and “the power of it all!”

After years of being a “redheaded stepchild”, Dee signed with a Risqué Business management company in 2003. Dee quickly landed a job on KSEX Radio as one third of Dee and The Fat Men. This morphed into several different shows with several different partners over the next few years, but the constant that kept fans tuning in continued to be the lovely Dee!

During this time, Dee also co-hosted a weekly show with Mr. Marcus on cable TV outlet Spice Live’s Spice Hotel. Spice Hotel was the first show ever to showcase live hardcore sex — on television — interspersed with talk and clips!

After an on-camera career that recorded a wildly successful string of industry “firsts,” Dee finally set her sights on her personal life. With an early youth that carried her across the country, but never into a true home, Dee had finally surrounded herself with “family” in an industry still scorned by much of America, and the world. As a special relationship in that world blossomed, Dee made a very painful decision. She decided to leave the porn world, and just become “a regular person, as if that’s possible.” (Dee laughs.) Unlike the vast majority of former performers, Dee still maintains control of the direction of her own web site, and she keeps in touch with a lot of her friends from the Adult world. She looks back at her career with fondness, and when you ask her if she’ll ever be back producing or directing, you get that little half-mouth grin that melts your heart. “You just never know,” she says.

No, we do not. We DO, however, certainly look forward to continuing the ride with Dee.

Dee does NOT have a Facebook page or a Twitter account. If you run across any that claim to belong to her, they are a hoax. Dee DOES answer questions and chats with fans on her Message Board on her Web Site. She’s also still really, really beautiful — both inside and out.
