About Jeannie Pepper

Jeannie Pepper is an American retired adult film actress. She began in the business in 1984 at age 26, and has appeared in over 200 adult films. She has appeared in films with a variety of themes, including all-black, lesbian, anal, double penetration and watersports and has performed with big bust models like Ebony Ayes, Purple Passion, Mauvais Denoir, and Effie Balconi.

According to various sources including the Video Team website, Pepper still makes occasional sex film appearances, including such recent films as Horny Black Mommas (2006), Momma Knows Best 3 (2007), and Horny Black Mommas & Daughters (2007). Nevertheless, Jeannie has settled into semi-retirement after more than 20 years in the adult film business.

Pepper was married to photographer Hans Rudelstein, although the two are now divorced. She has appeared in several mainstream films — including High School High (1996) and The Malibu Beach Vampires (1991) — credited as Joan Rudelstein.

Pepper was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 1997, the first African American woman to be recognized with that honor. She was inducted into the XRCO Hall of Fame in 2008.
