Femme Productions is only one of the myriad projects up the sleeve of actress, director, producer, author, educator, and artist Candida Royalle. In addition to creating Femme (and its sister production company Femme Chocolat), Royalle has launched Natural Contours, a line of female-friendly toys, oversees CandidaRoyalle.com, and continues to write books and articles focusing on female empowerment in the bedroom. And, if you’re as lucky as this interviewer, she’ll even treat you to an impromptu, a cappella jazz standard.
