Juliet Carr, better known as Juliet Anderson or Aunt Peg, was discovered deceased on Monday morning, January 11th, 2009 at her home in Berkley. According to the friend who found her, Kevin Fong, there were no visible signs of foul play or suicide. She was 71 years old and had Crohn-Lesniowski Disease (AKA Chrohn's Disease), a congenital autoimmune affliction of the gastrointestinal tract, for which she had only recently sought treatment.
Juliet Carr is famous for playing the persona of the older, well-aged, experienced woman who has a lot to offer sexually. In effect, she is the original MILF-archetype. In an era when women over 40 were practically unheard of in adult films, she was breaking ground with her Aunt Peg series.
On her web site, Juliet Carr writes she entered the industry in 1978 at the age of 39 when -- A small downtown theater was looking for “attractive women over 18 for soft-core sex show, short hours, lots of fun, good pay.” I figured I had nothing to lose by checking it out. I was scared to death but went to the theater anyway and was accepted immediately. But the woman who hired me told me: #1 the owner of the theater, Alex d’Renzy, also a renowned film maker, would have to give the final OK but was in the middle of shooting a film and #2 not to tell him my age as late 30s was considered too old.
