California Law School To Be The Setting for Documentary on Porn Star IL

It may not be the type of exposure that West Los Angeles School of Law was seeking, but the school will be the focus of a new documentary “Porn Star Goes to Law School,” the account of Traci Bryant, 38, (known as Anita Cannibal) who is now a IL — studying while continuing to work in the porn industry.

Featured in the Bitter Lawyer, Bryant describes her work for better health and safety for adult film performers. Putting stereotypes asides, Bryant can be given considerable credit for finishing her undergraduate life at California State University while working in the industry.

It will be interesting to see if anyone tries to challenge her bar admission on morality grounds. In my view, such a challenge would be meritless absent a criminal conviction. This is a lawful industry in California. (Even criminal violations can be waived as a barrier upon investigation in cases where individuals have shown later rehabilitation and responsibility).
