Biography

Roberts grew up in a very traditional Mormon family. Her father was a Bishop, one of the key positions within the church. Roberts has said that her upbringing gave her a strong sense of values and a good work ethic. After high school she went to college in Utah for fashion and design but quit after 2 years and took a job in retail management in Los Angeles, California. It was during this time that she met Dayton, another pornstar and through her learned about the adult business.cite web|url=http://www.pornstar-tawny.com|title= Tawny Roberts biography|accessdate=2007-05-01]

Roberts met her at the Key Club in Hollywood that was well-known by the locals for their live music. Dayton worked as a contract star for Vivid Entertainment and took Roberts in to meet with an executive of the firm. Because Vivid's company was bought out by Hustler Entertainment, they told her that they weren't interested.

Dayton then introduced her to some other friends, and through those introductions she was able to get work with the porn producers at Metro Interactive. In late-2000 and early-2001 she worked for them in three movies, "Wild Cherries", "All Teens Love Cum 1" and "All Fucked Up", but she was not happy with the quality of the movies or her working conditions and as a result almost quit the adult business all together.

She met former pornstar Jill Kelly who had just started her own movie studio and was looking for new talent, and Kelly hired her for a role in her new movie "Immorta", starring alongside Devon who had recently left Vivid as well [cite web|url=http://www.4aday.com|title=Pornstar Devon Biography|accessdate=2007-05-10] and long time industry veteran, Asia Carrera. This was the first time Roberts met Devon and they formed a friendship that would eventually even blossom into a business partnership with Roberts's own company.

After working for Jill Kelly, Roberts also did some movies for other companies such as Odyssey, Evil Angel and Digital Sin. In 2002 she secured a 2 year deal with VCA Pictures. The deal didn't work out as it wasn't overly lucrative and within a few months she wanted out. A friend of hers suggested she give Vivid another try. Roberts got out of her contract with VCA and signed a two year contract with Vivid that included 6 movies a year.

Her first three films for Vivid won her critical acclaim, all gaining the highest reviewer ratings, including "Most Beautiful Girl in the World", "Unlovable" and "Dual Identity".
