Lynn Comella is Associate Professor of Gender and Sexuality Studies at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. An award-winning researcher, she has written extensively about sexuality and culture for numerous academic publications and popular media outlets. She’s interviewed porn legend Nina Hartley, covered the red carpet at the AVN Awards, reported on the business of adult webcamming, and investigated the state of sex education in Nevada. She is coeditor of the comprehensive New Views on Pornography: Sexuality, Politics, and the Law, and a frequent media contributor. She’s been featured in more than 100 news stories and broadcasts, including ABC Nightline, The Guardian, Talking Points Memo, Women’s Health, The Daily Beast, Salon, Mashable, Broadly, Bitch, and more. In Vibrator Nation—the first book to tell the story of feminist sex-toy stores and the women who pioneered them—she takes a deep dive into the making of the consumer market for sex toys, tracing its emergence from the early 1970s to today. Drawing on more than eighty in-depth interviews with retailers and industry insiders, including a stint working as a vibrator clerk, she brings readers onto the sex-shop floor and into the world of sex-positive capitalism and cultural production. Dr. Comella received a Ph.D. in Communication from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. For more information about her research and writing visit lynncomella.com.
