Sharon Mitchell (born January 18, 1956) is the Director of the Adult Industry Medical Health Care Foundation, that she set up in 1998. She used to be an erotic actress, and, with Sharon Kane, is considered to be one of the two most prolific adult movie actresses.
Before becoming a porn star, she was an Off-Broadway actress and dancer who toured with the Martha Graham company. Then in an act of liberation, she turned into a hard core movie starlet. Later she became addicted to narcotics.
On March 30, 1996, she was attacked and raped by an admirer who almost killed her. After that incident, she left the sex industry to go back to school. She earned a Ph.D. degree in human sexuality from the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco. She is qualified in the treatment of people with drug dependencies and public health counselling.
During her career in the industry, she appeared in over 2000 movies and directed 38. She made many appearances as a bondage model.
