Danni Ashe, born Danielle Ashe on January 16, 1968, in Beaufort, South Carolina, is a retired American nude model, former erotic dancer, web developer, and entrepreneur who revolutionized online adult content. Noted for her naturally large 32FF breasts, she began stripping at age 17 in Seattle clubs using a fake ID, without completing high school. After five years, she relocated to Los Angeles, modeling for men's magazines like Juggs, starring in softcore videos, and performing as a featured exotic dancer across the U.S. An arrest in Jacksonville, Florida, for topless dancing in a non-nude club led her to seek greater control over her career. In early 1995, self-taught in HTML and digital imaging, Ashe launched Danni's Hard Drive (Danni.com), a pioneering subscription-based softcore website featuring her exclusive photos and videos. The site rapidly gained massive traffic, earning Guinness World Records' title of most downloaded woman on the internet in 2000 with over one billion downloads that year. By 2001, it generated $6.5 million in revenue, employing 50 staff in a 16,000 sq ft studio. Valued at $30 million, she sold it in 2004 to John Morisano and later to Penthouse in 2006 for $3 million. Married to Bert Manzari, Ashe appeared on Howard Stern, E!'s Women of the Net, PBS Frontline, and advocated for the industry before retiring.
