Briana Banks

Stunning actress Briana Banks is a long-legged, German-born beauty who walked out on a boring job as an insurance auditor to begin a career in adult entertainment and has never looked back. Briana moved from Europe to California when she was seven. In high school she was a studious, shy, kid who played volleyball, ran track and didn't even kiss a boy until she was 17. "I always thought of myself as a skinny, dorky, giraffe looking kid," Briana says. "Even though I had made the cover of Teen magazine as a model, I wasn't making any money. I was broke the day I quit my insurance job so I answered an ad in L.A. Weekly that said I could make up to $1,000 a day modeling." The job led to a Penthouse centerfold and eventually to a contract with Vivid Entertainment. In 2002 she made Briana Loves Jenna with top porn star Jenna Jameson and the movie went on to become the best selling and renting adult video of the year. Briana is a co-author with other Vivid Girls of How to Have a XXX Sex Life: The Ultimate Vivid Guide published by the ReganBooks division of Harper Collins and she is featured in the Timothy Greenfield-Sanders book XXX-30 Porn-Star Portraits. When her adult acting career is over, she wants to go behind the scenes to start her own line of adult movies, work on her Website and return to college full-time.
