Danni Ashe is the pseudonym of an American glamour model and former erotic dancer, who is the founder and former CEO of Danni’s Hard Drive, a pioneering adult web site. Ashe started her adult Internet site in 1995. She has been an industry advocate and testified before a government panel. Currently she is retired from modeling and has pursued other artistic interests.
“Danni Ashe paved the way for every woman who has ever hosted her own website, performed as a cam model or created any adult content of any type for the internet,” said Sherri L. Shaulis of AVN. “When she couldn’t find anyone to create a site for her, she took it upon herself to learn HTML and do it herself. She showed women could have complete control over their content and brand on the internet, paving the way for the likes of Sunny Leone, Joanna Angel and many, many more.”

We do not mention to events that happened ‘before 1986’ and ‘after 2005’ in her life unless she or a public authority announced them specifically referring to ‘Danni Ashe’. This is because she has right to distinguish her private life from her business life. We appreciate your thoughtful cooperation to keep her current life quiet and peaceful. Thank you very much.
