Just finding this out now. On mobile so can't do pics. Will update later. Safe to say she deserves a mention in Literotica, as her presence had much influence on sexuality, porn and progressive erotic thought.

Candida Royalle (October 15, 1950 – September 7, 2015) was an American producer and director of couples-oriented pornography, a sex educator, sex-positive feminist, and pornographic actress. She was a member of the XRCO and the AVN Halls of Fame.

I wish she had gotten the chance to finish her film.
 
Candida Royalle, regarded as a pioneer for her work in front of and behind the camera, has died after battling ovarian cancer. She was 64.

The actress — whose real name is Candice Vadala — performed in more than two dozen adult films, but was best known for her work as a director, a first in the male-dominated industry.

The non traditional, feminist, LGBT friendly, sex shop I went to in MA, with My Ogre Husband, carried her films. I am glad that she was strong and brave enough to make her own films. The films she made had a heart, and a mind behind the sex.

I am hoping that a certain quirky movie theatre will have a showing for her.
Along time, ago, this theatre had a showing for a amateur porn.
