- Strikingly buxom and shapely brunette knockout Sydnee Steele was born Amy Jaynes on 9/23/68 in Dallas, TX. The daughter of a college professor, she was a very shy and introverted child. She worked as a financial officer at a yacht company in Texas and as a jewelry saleswoman in a Dallas shopping mall. It was while at this job she met Michael Raven, who at the time was a car salesman but later became a noted porn filmmaker. She and Raven got married, discovered a common interest in hardcore movies and swinging, and moved to Los Angeles, CA, to pursue careers in the adult film industry. Sydnee first became involved in the adult entertainment business through her friend A.J. Cromwell, who was the owner and publisher of the Texas adult entertainment listings guide "Sundown". She subsequently met adult film director Brad Armstrong at a Gentleman's Expo and acted in her first big hardcore feature for him. She went on to work for such major companies as Vivid, VCA Pictures, Sin City, Elegant Angel, and New Sensations prior to signing an exclusive contract with Wicked Pictures in 2001. She won AVN Awards for both Best All-Girl Sex Scene--Video and Best Couples Sex Scene--Film in 2001, Best Actress--Video in 2002, and Best Supporting Actress--Video in 2003. She was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2007.
She also wrote the monthly column "The Steele Factor" for AVN from 2002-04 as well as penning several articles for both AVN Online and "Club" magazine. She then studied with Dr. Patti Britton so she could become a certified Pranic instructor and sex coach. In 2006 she co-wrote the instructional book "Seducing Your Woman" with hypnotherapist Luke Smith.- IMDb Mini Biography By: woodyanders

- [on how her family feels about her porn career] Gosh, it's such a shock... It's not easy for a dad to have his little girl as a porn star. It wasn't exactly... I asked them, well what did you guys always want for me? For me to be happy, well, I'm very happy. I understand that you can have safety concerns and this and that but I covered everything with them. Really, it's safer than... I have a friend that got a divorce and slept with ten different guys that year and got some little type of STD and got infected. One of the things about being in the industry is that it's like a family, you know what the habits are. It was all about explaining to them and letting them know what it's really all about.
- Sex on stairs is easy. You can get great shots. You have a railing to hold onto. You can put one leg down and one leg up. So if you're not muscular or strong it's a great way to do it.
- [on condoms] I think it's a great message to send but I think it's also great for the story. The biggest thing I can say is that when you put a movie in and people remember that this is a fantasy world. We are all tested. We all know each other's habits. We are a small family. People do stray from the family but overall I know what they are doing and who with.
