Gauge is an American pornographic actor and feature dancer.[1][2]

Career

[edit]

After having appeared in about 140 movies, Gauge left the pornographic film industry in 2005[3] due to a contract dispute with her management company.[2] She was certified as a surgical technologist,[3] but she reported that she was often turned down for jobs because of her adult film career. She retrained as a makeup artist, but suffered similar issues.[2]

While Gauge was studying to become a surgical technician, an anesthesia student recognized her as a pornographic actor, word spread among the staff and, when she was set to graduate, no one would sign off on her required hours.[3] Later, while working at a hospital, her boss sexually harassed her and the hospital's complaints department did not believe her so she resigned.[4]
