Joanna Angel

Joanna Angel is the founder and owner of the online porn site, BurningAngel.com. Launched in 2002, Joanna Angel and her partners hoped to present an adult alternative to what they saw was a homogenized, mainstream porn world. Instead of fake tits and blonde bimbos, BurningAngel.com presented all natural tattooed women. Thus, the term alt-porn was invented. Since then, Joanna has written, produced, directed and starred in many films available exclusively through BurningAngel.com, as well as appearing in more traditionally distributed adult films.

Due to the success of BurningAngel, Joanna Angel has been featured in numerous magazines and newspapers, including an article written in The New York Times.

She briefly wrote a monthly sexual-advice column for Spin. She also contributed a chapter to the book Naked Ambition: Women Pornographers and How They Are Changing the Sex Industry.

She was nominated for the 2009 AVN Award for The Jenna Jameson Crossover Star of the Year.

In 2010, Joanna Angel won the TLA RAW Award for Best Starlet Blog.
