Stacey Donovan is an American former pornographic actress born Kelley Howell in Encino, California in 1964. Howell started performing in adult films when she was eighteen. Howell did not set out professionally to be an adult film star. "I don't enjoy [working in pornography]", Howell once told The Baltimore Sun during October 1985 in an article reprinted in the San Diego Union-Tribune. She noted that she earned about $1,000 a day. "But I don't like to take my clothes off in front of everyone." She entered pornography as she badly needed money, and continued doing it strictly as the money was too good to give up. In 1984, she was a centerfold in Hustler. While working in porn, she also was on the cover of Seventeen and starred in commercials for Swatch.
