I had read about it. I had no idea who she was, but when I read an article in the newspaper I learned some bits of her history.
Anyway, it must not have been easy for her and it must be a very hard choice to make, especially taking into account she did it at a time when the industry, I guess, was not as well established as today's.
She must have helped relieve the loneliness and fulfill the fantasies, even if for a brief period, of many people.
So, RIP Marilyn Chambers, and may the cause of her death, after all, be found and if it was a crime, I hope the person who did it get caught and justice be made.
I saw her in the movie "Insatiable" over 25 years ago while I was in college. If I remember correctly, she had a unique head nodding style impying that her pleasuring was very intense.
