Annette Haven was one of the first true porn superstars, a stunningly gorgeous creature with a wholesome, girl-next-door aura about her. Her fresh-scrubbed look made her the perfect choice for roles which called for an innocent, virginal young woman, and Annette was the 70's queen of such parts. Despite her seemingly naive facade, Annette was a tenacious sexual performer who always left everything she had right there on the screen. Her long career in front of the cameras didn't harden her, and she looked almost as bright and fresh in the mid-80's as she had for her hardcore debut in Alex DeRenzy's 1973 feature 'Lady Freaks.' Annette had a strikingly pretty face, with deep brown eyes and a lusciously full mouth. Her body was more in the soft 70's mold than the sculpted 90's mode, with perfect medium-sized breasts and a delectable backside that was built to be put in motion.

Annette worked in a variety of jobs before getting into porn, serving as a nurse's aid, massage parlor girl and exotic dancer. Once she got into the scene, she was known as a true professional and a class act. She was highly selective about the films she did and the performers she worked with, which resulted in a uniformly high-quality batch of features. Annette starred in such XRCO Hall of Fame films as 'Desires Within Young Girls' and 'Sex World,' and was one of the first actresses elected to the group's Performer Hall of Fame. She's currently married and raising a family in up-scale Marin County, California.

She received the award in 1977 from the Adult Film Association of America for the movie 'Coming of Angels'.
Annette Haven Profile: Annette Haven (Martin), born around 1943, was porn's first gorgeous woman. The Jane Seymour look-alike was a solid actress and a cool sex performer. She still looks good, and along with many other ex-porn stars, lives in the
liberal San Francisco Bay Area. A computer whiz, she's married to a rich man.

"None of today's porn girls are classy like Annette," says Bill Rostler. "She's a rarity in this genre."

The brunette beauty has an entire group of performers named after her by Jim Holliday. "It's the Annette Haven school of acting. I'm a 10 and I know I'm a 10, and so I'm just going to lie here and allow myself to get penetrated."
Haven's body was in the soft '70s mold rather than the sculpted '90s look. Annette grew up a Mormon but soon rebelled against her religiously and politically conservative upbringing.

"A classic beauty and a mind as sharp as a stiletto set her apart," says AFW. "Haven's roles ranged from innocent virgin to bitchy executive, and her commitment to excellence is apparent in her unwavering concentration on the task at hand, whether it be delineating a character or pumping a dick.

"In Lust At First Bite her beauty draws the eye and holds it. Her slender form, transparent like alabaster, seems pristine, as the evil Dracula (Jamie Gillis) schemes to sully her purity. "In Seven Seductions of Madam Lao she demonstrates her remarkable range,playing both the imperious Lao and the innocent Lucy. Watch her shivering
with passion as she rides Pacheco's ridgepole. Then observe the radical shift to innocent neophyte, bedazzled by her first sexual experience."
Annette created and directed 1975's Once Upon A Time which is shot entirely outdoors and uses the time machine premise. Haven plays an anthropologist studying the sexual behavior of Cro-Magnon man and other early men and
women who appeared on earth several million years ago. "It's all tongue-in-cheek, but the sexmaking is caring and believable and there are no caveman antics such as might appear in a 1980s film. Annette proclaims at the end that the film was made to change American sexual attitudes. Her concession to the raincoat crowd is printed intercuts to some of the action such as: "Man who screws on grass has piece on earth," or "Don't talk with your mouth full," or "Watch the tool, fool."

Haven plays the title role in 1977's Visions of Clair. The film ranks among the most abstruse adult films ever. Even filmmaker [Zachary] Youngblood confesses that he got too cryptic for his own good. "As daring and
innovative as Clair is, it is judged harshly as the single film [out of hundreds] that lost money for the distributor." (Holliday)

Annette Haven lists her favorite movie as 1979's For The Love of Pleasure because she gets to play God. "Simon Black (Jamie Gillis), a down-and-out bum, steals a car, breaks into an apartment and is about to get away when a
woman turns on the light, points a pistol at him and demands that he strip. Her husband arrives home. Simon gets dressed but he's still in the bedroom. What can she do? She shoots him dead. "Next scene, Simon is in heaven - he thinks - and an angel in the form of Annette Haven, called Shiva, teaches him how to make love to a woman in what is the best porno sex-education sequence you've ever seen. Simon is condemned to satisfy his lust for women and food. In the process...he enjoys a virgin and discovers that he's in a nonstop sex marathon culminating in an orgy in which five women wear him a frazzle. "I used to love food and sex," he pleads with Shiva, "but I'm exhausted. I can't take
it anymore. Get me out of heaven." To which she replies, "What makes you think this is heaven?"

In later years, Haven often played professional women who are unafraid of their own sexuality. Annette's best movie maybe Tower of Power where she plays a high level executive involved in the struggle for control of a major corporation. Claudia is a tough, manipulative woman, regal as a queen and just as demanding. Even as the man she is keeping (Herschel Savage) fucks her savagely, Claudia maintains complete control, screaming ecstatically while Herschel slams it home.

"The script called for him to submit," remembers Annette, "but he wouldn't. He wouldn't budge, so I threw him to the floor, which wasn't in the script. It surprised the hell out of him." Public Affairs presents her as an investigative reporter who exposes a corrupt candidate. Again Haven is required to be in control, yet remains sensuous and feminine. "The first time I worked with Richard Pacheco, I was so overwhelmed by my orgasm that I fainted. When I came to, Richard was holding me in his arms. Everyone else had gone home."

AFW: "She is a strong woman, and that may be daunting to some men, but her fans love that she can be so outspoken, yet dynamically sexual. She's a thinking man's sex goddess: always sexy, ever a lady."

All About Annette, 1982, should be called Nothing Much About Annette according to Bob Rimmer. Annette Haven spends a few minutes talking with Al Goldstein. "I cook, I sew, I clean, I knit baby booties...the only difference between me and lots of women is that I think sex is ok, and I'm not afraid to say so...The whole point of my being in the industry is to help change American attitudes and establish that sex is a good thing. I still consider myself a lady."

Unusual among porn actresses, Havens refused to absorb oral cumshots.


Annette retains her ice princess demeanor. She acts coolly superior. The veteran of more than 75 movies claims "I never called anyone for a role; they all called me." She says she'd still be doing videos today if everyone practiced safe sex.

HEVG's Peter Green: "Annette Haven is one bitch who needed to be fucked up the ass by ten of the most brutal-looking Negroes the California Department of Corrections had to offer."
