Casey Calvert Reveals Why She Chose Porn in New Book by Jiz Lee

LOS ANGELES, CA — Adult performer Casey Calvert shares her personal story about her decision to join the porn business in an essay featured in Coming Out Like a Porn Star, an all-new book by adult industry veteran Jiz Lee. The book is now available in paperback from ThreeL Media, and Calvert’s essay is titled “Shark’s Teeth.”  “Early this year, Jiz sent me an email asking if I would be interested in participating. I agreed immediately, before I even knew what I was going to write about,” stated Calvert. “My essay took form through multiple drafts. The biggest challenge was just being honest with myself, and being comfortable sharing that honesty with the world. I'm thrilled with the end result. I think my piece is one of the best I have ever written, and it is an honor to be included among such great company.”  In her essay, “Shark’s Teeth,” Calvert tells of her Florida upbringing and how her best friend introduced her to porn as a middle school teen. Calvert would later become fascinated by spanking and BDSM/fetish porn. When her hidden secret came out, she earned a trip to the therapist, but her newfound obsession would not end there. Thanks to her college professor, who taught a First Amendment law class, Calvert learned porn was not as awful as she had been conditioned to believe.  Calvert would ultimately contact a porn producer whose fetish videos she admired and agreed to make her first video with him while still in college.  “I wrote in my journal that afternoon. I wrote down every little detail so afraid to forget,” Calvert wrote. “At the end of my entry, I apologized to my mom, I apologized for staying out late. I apologized for enjoying it way more than I thought I would.”  Eventually graduating Magna Cum Laude from the University of Florida, Casey Calvert worked as a popular fetish model before arriving in Los Angeles and embarking on an adult film career.  Coming Out Like a Porn Star is a definitive anthology from Lee with personal stories by over 50 porn professionals who “came out” — or chose not to — to family, friends, and lovers. They represent a wide range of sexualities, ethnicities, and genders, with stories spanning topics such as coming out as trans and gay or lesbian, and stories where the authors push back against media further stigmatizing those who choose to do porn.  Calvert’s essay is featured alongside those of such adult stars as Joanna Angel, Ashley Blue, Nina Hartley, Stoya, and many others.  To purchase Coming Out Like a Porn Star on Amazon.com, clickhere.
