EDITORIAL FEATURES

56-54_Nina_Henri_Dam_large

Longtime Fleshbot idol and erotic arts inspiration Barbara Nitke is a behind-the-camera legend of adult film. Alas, Nitke's niche was not as a sinematic writer, director, or cinematographer; instead, the Virginia-born, Alaska-raised visionary chronicled the heady, sweaty, lusty, loony, hairy, occasionally scary, and all-around liberating days of 1970s and '80s New York City big-screen porn movie production as a documentary photographer—brilliantly.

Nitke's sumptuous photo book American Ecstasy compiles her work from the sets and behind-the-fucking-scenes of numerous X-rated cinema classics, and features iconic blue screen bangers such as Sharon Mitchell, Vanessa Del Rio, Nina Hartley, and (shockingly in-shape) Ron Jeremy.

Lucky residents of Brighton, England can presently view Barbara's photos on display at the One Eyed Jacks Gallery. The lone caveat: please delay your own one-handed jacks until you get home.
