She got involved in the L.A. club scene, and struck up an acquaintance with Althea Flynt, the wife of "Hustler" magazine publisher Larry Flynt. She soon was doing layouts for "Hustler," "Penthouse" and other mens magazines. When her friend and colleague Ginger Lynn Allen (aka Ginger Lynn) began making porn films, Lynn saw the kind of money she was making and decided to take a shot at it, too. She made her porn debut in "Personal Touch 3" (1983) and went on to become one of the biggest adult-film stars of the 1980s. When the Traci Lords scandal engulfed the industry in the mid-1980s, many of her friends and co-workers got caught up in it and there were many indictments against industry figures, but although Lynn was acquainted with and had worked with many involved in the incident, she managed to come out of it unscathed. However, that scandal and the suicide of her friend and fellow porn queen Shauna Grant a few years previously really shook her, and she decided to take a break from the business. She landed a gig doing personal appearances with fellow adult film diva Tracey Adams from Canada, and it opened up a whole new world for her. She decided that live entertainment was what she wanted to do, and she kept at it for the next few years until the market was swamped with stars doing live dance shows, and the money started to dry up. Amber returned to L.A. and got back into doing magazine layouts again. By the mid-1990s she was back making films, but at that time producers weren't willing to pay her the prices she was asking, and she wound up making mostly girl-girl films and a few non-sex appearances in other types of adult film. She had also developed drug and alcohol problems, and by 1999 her personal life and career were in such a troubled state that she took time off to get clean and straighten her life out. In 2000, clean and sober, she went back to making films, until 2010 when She retired permanently. ... (more)
