The AVN (Adult Video News) Hall of Fame has honored people for their work in the adult entertainment industry since 1995.[1] The individuals inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame have "made significant contributions to the adult industry" and have had "a minimum of 10 years in the industry" to be considered for induction.[2]
There are several branches of the AVN Hall of Fame:
- Performers and directors enter the original AVN, video-based Hall of Fame.[2]
- The Founders branch is "for those who founded the industry's pioneering companies".
- The Internet Founders branch is "for those who built the online sector" of the industry.
- The Pleasure Products branch is "for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers of sex toys".
- The Executive branch is "for key members of the industry who work behind the scenes in the corporate offices or excelled in other capacities—for example, in sales, marketing, or education".[2]
