Belladonna is an American porn actress, writer, and director of Russian ancestry. She was born in Biloxi, Mississippi and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, her father being an Air Force officer. Starting her career at 18 in 1999, Belladonna quickly made a name for herself doing anal and rough hardcore scenes, and she soon moved to directing and starring in a number of hardcore BDSM-related series for major label Evil Angel, under her own production company Belladonna Entertainment. Belladonna retired from porn in 2012, but took roles in two mainstream Hollywood movies released in 2014: Paul Thomas Anderson's Inherent Vice, and horror film The Ladies of the House.
