“Once I got with Spiegler I already had been in for a year and I literally took off.”
Whitney Wright calls them “peak moments.”
When she recognizes one, she savors it.
“Like being a Twistys Treat, or Cherry of the Month for CherryPimps,” Wright says. “Those were
peaks when I first got in.”
Wright reached another personal milestone in May, when the iconic French studio Dorcel flew
her to Paris, France, to star in a full-length feature.
The former nursing student from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, performs in four sex scenes in
Whitney Desires of Submission, commanding the lead role of an American filmmaker working to adapt a successful book.
“To shoot for Dorcel in Paris—I was telling my friend—this is a huge deal,” Wright says. “They’ve only done this for certain people.”
But now almost six years after her debut, the enterprising Spiegler Girl continues to prove she’s one of the most versatile talents in the adult industry today—a creative force who can carry a high-stakes drama, perform hardcore sex, write twisted screenplays and direct movies with equal precision.
It wouldn’t be a stretch to say Wright even surprised herself with what she has achieved since Day 1 in September 2016.
“It’s crazy to think about,” Whitney says. “It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long. I always knew I wanted to be with Spiegler—I did know that. I knew I wanted to work. And I knew I wanted to keep on building towards something.
“... I don’t know if directing was necessarily something in my mind at the time. But I always did want to keep building momentum—I did know that. I didn’t just want to stay in one place. But I think looking back I’m definitely grateful.
“It’s crazy to think of everything that led up to that and everything that’s happened since. But Spiegler has been amazing—he’s been so amazing.”
Wright is referring to Mark Spiegler, the AVN Hall of Fame agent who has guided seven of the past nine winners of the AVN Female Performer of the Year award. Spiegler agreed to represent Wright on November 12, 2017.
“I remember the day, too,” Whitney says
“She’s the consummate professional,” Spiegler tells AVN. “She does great scenes, she’s super smart, she can act and she’s also a great director. She covers the gamut from A to Z pretty much.” He adds, “She kind of had it in her but to be honest, she needed a little push. Once she got
going, she really went.” Did she ever.
