Jacky St. James is a multiple award-winning American adult film director and screenwriter. St. James was born and raised in Northern Virginia, in the Washington Metropolitan Area.  In 2004, at the age of 27, she moved to Los Angeles, where she became a mainstream film/television actress and director.  In May 2010, a friend of St. James sent her a clip of "The Wedding Day" from the New Sensations Romance Series, because he was impressed by the quality of the film. She did some research and discovered that New Sensations was doing a writing contest for the series.  She entered the contest in 2011 and her script, "Dear Abby", won.  Adult film director Eddie Powell, who had given St. James advice on writing the script, directed the film, and it was released by New Sensations in June 2011.  The film won Best Screenplay at the 2012 AVN Awards, and her subsequent films, such as "Torn", "The Temptation of Eve", and "The Submission of Emma Marx", have won awards and award nominations every year since.  Since 2014, the bulk of her directing work has been for Digital Sin's Tabu Tales, an adult film line with plots featuring "fauxcest".   In addition to her duties as a director and screenwriter, she is also a publicist for New Sensations.
