Marilyn Chambers Dies At 56


Marilyn Chambers was found dead, last night, in her northern Los Angeles County home.

We remember Chambers as the star of the 1972 film "Behind The Green Door" which was more widely distributed and attracted a more mainstream audience than the usual adult fare.

Chambers, whose given name was Marilyn Briggs, was once a model for Ivory Snow. She was among the first porn superstars when the stag films of the 1940s through 1960s gave way to the more polished adult films of the 1970s.

Cause of death has not been determined.
