XXX
30 Porn-Star Portraits
Timothy Greenfield-Sanders
Introduction by Gore Vidal

XXX is a provocative look at today's leading porn stars combined with insightful, offbeat, and engaging texts by an all-star literary lineup. The photographs are by renowned art and celebrity-portrait photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, who has made paired portraits (one clothed and one nude) of the top stars in pornographic film. A cross section of straight and gay men and women is represented, from industry legends to rising stars. Performers in the book include celebrities such as Jenna Jameson (the leading porn star of our time), Ron Jeremy, and Nina Hartley, as well as fast-rising names like Sunrise Adams, Belladonna, and Chad Hunt.

The book includes short essays on the intersection of pornography and culture by a wide range of distinguished contributors, from Salman Rushdie to John Malkovich, Nancy Friday to John Waters, A.M. Homes to Lou Reed. Candid photographs with personal biographies and top-ten film lists for each porn star appear at the back of the book. XXX is a landmark artistic work that will contribute to the ongoing debate about the “pornification” of the culture at large.
