Joanna Angel, born to an Israeli mother and an American father, spent her formative years in River Edge, Bergen County, New Jersey. Her academic journey led her through Cherry Hill Elementary School and River Dell Regional High School, culminating in a Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature with a minor in Film Studies from Rutgers University.

A trailblazer in the adult entertainment industry, Joanna is believed to be the first individual raised in Orthodox Judaism to enter the world of pornography. Her early career included stints at a kosher fast-food restaurant in Teaneck and various eateries during her college years. Eventually, she settled in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York, where she co-founded the groundbreaking website BurningAngel.com with Mitch Fontaine.

Joanna's creative vision propelled her into the spotlight as a former model for SuicideGirls and the founder of BurningAngel.com, pioneering the "indie-punk-porn" genre. Her innovative approach, blending interviews with band members, stories of sexual encounters, and nude photography, garnered widespread acclaim. Inspired by a live sex performance by Nina Hartley, Joanna transitioned into producing hardcore movies for BurningAngel.com, revolutionizing the alt porn landscape and making it financially viable.

Her contributions to the genre earned her recognition as a major influence in the mainstreaming of alt porn. Joanna's portfolio includes several zombie-themed hardcore films, such as "Re-Penetrator" (2005), "Dong of the Dead" (2009), and "The Walking Dead: A Hardcore Parody" (2013), showcasing her creativity and vision.

Beyond her work with BurningAngel.com, Joanna has written, produced, directed, and starred in films exclusively distributed through the platform, as well as appearing in more traditionally distributed adult films. Her dedication to her craft and fearless approach to pushing boundaries have solidified her status as a pioneering figure in the adult entertainment industry.
