Dead: Marilyn Chambers.

Pre-Internet, Marilyn Chambers soft core on Skinemax changed my life. R.I.P. From KTLA:
Famed adult film star Marilyn Chambers was found dead in her home in the Canyon Country area, authorities said today.

L.A. County Sheriff's investigators tell KTLA that the 56-year-old actress was discovered Sunday night just before 9p.m. by her daughter McKenna in a mobile home in the 16000 block of Vasquez Canyon Road.

Chambers, whose real name was Marilyn Ann Taylor, had been living at the Canyon Country location for the past several months.

No cause of death was given, but investigators say foul play is not suspected.

An autopsy is planned.

Chambers broke into the porn industry by appearing in the 1972 film "Behind the Green Door," which was the first widely released pornographic film in the United States.

Why is it that the average age at time of death of porn stars always seem to be in the fifties? Lately anyway.
