Annette Haven is considered a legend in the porn business and ironically, something of a feminist. She worked when adult films were still shot on film and not videotape. Before entering adult films, she had worked in a variety of fields: nurse's aide, exotic dancer, massage parlor employee in the San Francisco area. She worked on her first adult film in the mids. Her regal and somewhat aloof bearing got her often cast as an angelic-looking virgin or femme fatale. Not only was she considered one of the best looking women in the industry, she could also act, as evidenced by her adult film best actress award from A Coming of Angels

Annette Haven born December 1, is an American former pornographic actress popular during the s and s. Haven was born in Las Vegas , Nevada , and raised in a Mormon family.

She was introduced to the sex industry through a role in a film called Lady Freaks in starring Holiday. Haven had a mainstream cameo role in Blake Edwards's Subsequently, she was considered to play the lead female role in Body Double , but it was eventually given to Melanie Griffith , who, according to director Brian De Palma , got the role because she gave a better dramatic screen test than Haven.
