“The adult industry today is facing a lot of challenges with the economy, technology, the political climate and the way people consume entertainment, so it’s vital to get a good handle on the hurdles we face and those that are still ahead.” Julia Ann made her adult-film debut in 1992 with “Hidden Obsessions.”
