All In A Day's (Sex) Work27 Apr 2020

16. Amy Taylor

The arc of Amy Taylor’s journey in the adult industry is wild: She started out as a broke student, achieved incredible success as an independent escort, fell victim to a high-profile industry predator who outed and stalked her before going to prison for attempting to hire someone to kill her, bravely returned to work and has since settled into what she considers to be a pre-retirement routine with some favorite regulars, with whom she’s weathering the world’s current obstacles. Amy’s clientele tends toward the upper crust. She has spent much of her 20 year career jet-setting with captains of industry. It was fascinating to talk with her about the nuances of her target demographics’ needs, as well as how she reconciles her sense of social responsibility with her professional responsibility to “keep sweet”.

Also: Missouri Department of Corrections inmate Patricia Trimble returns with COVID-19 updates in their facility and The Prison Journalism Project calls for submissions.
