She’s best known for the hip-hop photos she shot in New York in the early Eighties, the creation of hip-hop television show Yo! MTV Raps she produced and hosted for MTV Europe in the late 80s and early 90s,[1] and the website and online community dedicated to female pleasure she established in Paris in 2008.
