Anna Malle(1967-2006)

One of the more fiery and uninhibited performers in the adult-film business, Iowa-born Anna Malle's exotic look (part Cherokee and part Irish) and terrific body contributed to her becoming an almost instant fan favorite, and the tremendous energy she puts into each of her performances didn't hurt, either. She started out in pro/am films, appeared in one of Ed Powers' "Dirty Debutantes" series and a few Max Hardcore productions early in her career, and at the top of her profession had more than 200 films to her credit. She also toured the country as a stripper and made appearances on the Playboy Channel and on HBO. She had left the industry, moved to Las Vegas, NV, and was working in a department store when she was killed in a traffic accident in that city on January 25, 2006.
