It is difficult to determine exactly where and when Donna Mae Brown was born. Sometime in the late 1920s is a safe estimation. Donna Mae Brown became a nude model and burlesque dancer/stripper in the late 1940s and into the 1950s in Los Angeles, California. During this time period, it is documented that Donna appeared in at least one hardcore, pornographic film in which she both gave and received oral sex and had vaginal intercourse. She also made numerous adult films where she appeared solo and topless. Her voluminous breasts were her most striking attribute.
