Marilyn Chambers (born Marilyn Ann Briggs, April 22, 1952, in Westport, Connecticut, USA) is a former American pornographic actress and stripteaser perhaps best known for her 1972 hardcore debut Behind the Green Door.

Adult film career[edit]

Marilyn first came to the public's attention at age 17 as the cover girl on the Ivory Snow soap box, where she posed holding the baby. (According to some urban legends, she was the baby; this turned out to be false, as was the claim that the baby was Brooke Shields.) The product's manufacturer, Procter & Gamble quickly dropped her after it discovered her double life as an adult film actress. For Behind the Green Door, Chambers, who was ambivalent about starring in the film, asked the film's producers, the Mitchell brothers, Artie and Jim, for a percentage of the gross, never expecting that they would agree. After filming concluded, she dropped the Ivory Snow bombshell, which resulted in her being billed as the "99 and 44/100% pure" girl.

In Behind the Green Door, Chambers engaged in explicit interracial sex with the very well-endowed African-American actor Johnny Keyes. One scene lasted for over 45 minutes; at the conclusion of it, she fainted. The industry and viewing public were shocked; a white woman having sex with a black man was then still taboo. In later movies with John Holmes, who was noted for his extremely large penis, Chambers "talk[ed] dirty" to him off-camera to produce the desired effect: fully excited arousal. Eventually, mainstream films noticed Chambers, and in 1977, she got a part in David Cronenberg's Rabid.

She was noted for her performance enthusiasm, for deep throat, anal, lesbian, interracial, extreme bukkake, and double or triple penetration scenes. She was one of the first female stars to shave her pubic area, a practice now routine in preparation for a porn film. Chambers continues to appear in porn films for such companies as Naughty America and MILF Hunter, happily cashing in on the lucrative MILF market. Later in her career, Marilyn had a series of breast enhancements taking her from a B-cup to at least a D. She was also one of the first porn actresses to have her genitals pierced; she was photographed with a one-inch gold ring in her right inner labia. [unverified]

During her 1975-1985 marriage to porn producer/director, Chuck Traynor, Chambers gave birth to a daughter, McKenna Marie Taylor. During this marriage she acquired an interest in motorcycling. Chambers and Traynor divorced in 1985, with Chambers accusing her ex-husband of physical and mental abuse, just as Linda Lovelace, his first wife, had. [unverified]

While fueling her just-ridden motorcycle, Chambers severely burned her legs on the engine and muffler. Thereafter, few of her movies would expose her legs or feet.[unverified]
