We chat by phone in the last hours of Saturday, April 17, 2004. She lives in North Carolina, former home of Victoria Givens, who couldn't wait to get out of there.

Including Internet, Autumn has done about 40 sex scenes on camera. She's worked in the adult industry for a dozen years, including gigs as a feature dancer and as a lady of easy virtue at Dennis Hof's Moonlight Bunny Ranch.

Autumn: "The first time I did a film was 1997 for Rosebud's Alex deRenzy in San Francisco. It was scary. I was intimidated. It was a warehouse in January. It was freezing, miserable. I did it and I didn't remember what I did. I watched the movie for the first time two years ago. My husband was like, 'I didn't know a girl ate your pussy. I didn't know a girl stuck her finger up your ass.' I don't remember any of that sh--. I only remember grabbing a pair of tits.

"I've never worked in Los Angeles. I had my first trip planned for May. Obviously, I'm not coming. "I went down to Jim South in 1994 when I was 23 years old and flat chested. I'm still skinny but not flat chested. When I called Jim a few weeks ago, he still remembers me. 'You used to be Brianna Baldwin? You were a single mother and you lived in San Francisco.' Yes. I couldn't believe he remembered me. He said he'd get me work. To let him know when I was coming."

I speak to her Monday morning, Oct 17.

Luke: "Did you find God or become religious?"

Autumn: "No."

Luke: "You just wanted to get out of porn?"

Autumn: "Yeah. Out of the whole Adult business. I quit in January [2005]. It was time to get a real job. I'm going to school. I'm studying to become a mortician. Sad but true."

Luke: "How do you look back on your time in Adult?"

Autumn: "Some good memories, some bad. I'm not unhappy that I did it, but I'm really glad I'm out. I'm a much happier person not doing that. Too much pressure in the Adult business."

Luke: "What about being stigmatized by the general society?"

Autumn: "I never cared about them. I'm kinda one of those people [who say], 'Go f--- yourself if you don't like me.'

"I have a 13-year old daughter. I told her about it. Her ex-boyfriend knew. He had his own fantasies in his head, I'm sure. He talked s--- to her one time about my having been in that business and she back-handed him. That shut him up quick.

"That's not the way a kid needs to grow up.

"She doesn't care that I did that, but it's nothing to make you proud of your mother. 'My mother is a porn star.'"

Luke: "Did a boy at school ask your daughter for a pair of her unwashed panties?"

Autumn: "I did find a note asking that, but I don't think it had anything to do with me. That has to do with 13-year old boys knowing what goes on in porn. They have easy access to it, which I don't like. I don't think 12, 13, 14, 15-year old boys need to be watching pornography. They're going to treat your daughter the way they see guys treating the girls in the movies. That's not the way I want my daughter to learn about sex from the ideas some kid comes up with in a movie. Gagging her with his cock? No. I want my daughter to be respected."

Autumn spent 13-years in the Adult industry and has been with her man for 13-years. "I've been married to a good person for eight years. I met him in the Market Street Cinema [in San Francisco]. All they had back then was strictly lap-dancing. I sat on his lap and talked to him for an hour for five dollars.

"We didn't have sex for two months after we met."

They married before Autumn went to work at the Bunny Ranch.

Luke: "Did you have a breakdown when you were working at the Bunny Ranch?"

Autumn: "I did in 1999. That was when we were moving from the Bunny Ranch [to the South]. I think it was just the move (with only two weeks notice) and everything I've been through."

Autumn and her husband agreed in late 2004 that it was time for her to leave porn. "We both realized [porn] was affecting me. 'Why don't you just get out and go back to school? What do you really want to do?' Funeral directing. He knew that from before.

"Seven years ago, my daughter said, 'You can't do that. You can't touch dead people and come home.' Now I do it and she doesn't care. I took her to work. I said, 'There's a nice old lady. You can touch her hand if you want.' She said, 'No. Looking is good enough.' I said, 'There's nothing to be afraid of.' She said, 'You're right. They look like they are asleep.'"

Luke: "Do you stay in touch with anyone from Adult?"

Autumn: "No."

Luke: "You're not angry at the Adult industry?"

Autumn: "Not at all."
