Jenna Haze is one of the best female directors currently active.
Jenna grew up mainly in La Habra, California, though she also spent time in Lancaster, California and Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. Miss Haze is of mixed Spanish, German, and Irish descent.
Jenna Haze grew up the youngest of four in a single parent household. She first experienced vaginal intercourse with a boy at the age of 14 just to get it past her.
Her first anal experience occurred not long after, at least according to an interview in one of her pornographic videos.
By age 15 she had dropped out of high school and started working at a fast food restaurant and a variety of low wage service sector jobs.
When she turned 18 Haze tried stripping for a day, later recounting that she did not enjoy being a house girl, nor giving lap dances to men she had to pretend to like,
and did not make enough money to continue at it. However, she's also stated that she was a big fan of porn since even before she started working in the porn industry, and
when asked by friends in 2000 what her preferred moniker would be if she were an adult actress, offered "Jenna Haze" in honor of her then fiance (surname Hayes) and Jimi Hendrix's song "Purple Haze".
She had actually planned on performing in a couple of scenes for the Shane's World series with her fiance, but he decided against it at the last moment.
At the age of 19, and no longer in a serious relationship, Haze was introduced to then porn agent Dez at a favorite nightclub in Anaheim, California; and on July 19, 2001,
just two days later, performed in her first porn scenes in Oral Adventures of Craven Moorehead 8 and Service Animals 4
As with other modern female porn-stars, like Gauge, Allie Sin, Aurora Snow and Taylor Rain, Jenna garnered attention for her enthusiastic performances involving anal sex, semen swallowing, creampies, double penetration and ass-to-mouth.
She was signed as a contract star with Jill Kelly Productions in April 2002 and performed exclusively with women after forming a serious off-screen relationship with an industry cameraman.
Her contract with JKP was not renewed in April 2005, and by June she announced she was happy to be independent once again, and would likely return to performing in boy/girl in addition to lesbian scenes.
Jenna has appeared on the HBO show Pornucopia, which is a six part documentary special featuring the pornography industry in California.
In 2006, Jenna released her first boy-girl film in over three years, Jenna Haze Darkside released by Jules Jordan video.
