By 1997 she had appeared in Penthouse a record setting 30 + times along with gracing the cover several times, most notably with Howard Stern and Aerosmith. Leslie's beautiful face and body graced Penthouse magazine covers in Germany and in France. By January of 2000 Leslie had made 86 appearances in Penthouse and they continue to use photos from photo shoots she did. In 2005 Penthouse released a never before seen photo shoot Leslie did. She also participated in several of Penthouse's video releases where she not only was featured but also graced the covers as well.
Throughout her life she did her best to help rescue and place unwanted abused animals. Bestowed with beauty, smarts, and fame she used those assets to help start her own animal rescue organization. Aided by a group of volunteers Leslie embarked on making a difference in the lives of unwanted homeless animals. She saved animals from the pound, off the streets, wherever an animal was in need, Leslie was there. When she wasn't busy doing hands on rescueing she was busy making phone calls trying to do all she could for animals.
With Penthouse's permission and blessing by Bob Guccione to use the name, Leslie started Pets-4-pets a non profit animal rescue organization based in Baltimore, Maryland. Penthouse allowed use of its name to help promote what they felt was a worthy cause.
Leslie appeared on tv's "Hard Copy" interviewed for her Pets-4-pets efforts.
Leslie continued to work for Penthouse during this time. She did a photo shoot bringing awareness to her efforts in animal rescue. Calling upon her Penthouse friends she was able to use her fellow Penthouse pets along with the magazine to help raise money for this cause. Calendars and posters were created to raise money for their animal rescue efforts.
She starred as one of the 3 female leads in the movie classic " Vampire Vixens From Venus".
Working 18 hour days Leslie was involved in all aspects of rescueing. Her goal was to have a cancer treatment center for animals, which at the time would have been the second only animal cancer treatment facility. Partnered with her husband she owned a veterinary clinic, along with the building it was in. She was transforming the building into a groomers and a coffee house for pet lovers and animal care facility all in one. By this time in her life it was estimated that her animal rescue organization had saved the lives of over 3000 animals.
Her marriage was not to last. A nasty divorce sent her animal rescue organization in an upheaval and when the smoke cleared Leslie had no other options and had to dismantle her animal rescue group, lose the building, and unknowingly put an end to her dream.
Leslie continued her animal rescue efforts on her own. She moved to Florida and became a top featured exotic dancer that danced locally and across the nation. During her trips to other cities Leslie would stop by an animal shelter and rescue a dog or cat and bring them back home where she would try and place them in a new home. She would do this along with donating her earnings to various animal rescue groups.
Leslie travelled to Canada and met her last husband, Ghyslain.
To gain more notiriety and money Leslie signed a 3 picture deal with VIVID Video-the adult film world's leading studio for adult entertainment movies. Leslie had already done 2 movies with Vivid prior to this but for those movies she did not want to be the top name feature of the movie. This time was different. She became part of Vivid's royal family of 1997-sharing the spotlight with adult video goddess'- Janine Lindemulder , Lexus Lochlear, Raquell darrian, Kobe Tai, Tia Bella, and Heather Hunter. Appearing in an adult rated movie allowed her more notoriety to charge more for her special appearances when she would do her strip club tour. This was how she supported herself and her animal rescue efforts.
In 1998 she was diagnosed with metastic colon cancer that had spread to her liver. Because of medical personnel misdiagnosing her symptoms, it was not caught early. When it was finally found she was only given a 2 week time frame to live. The cancer had already spread to her liver where they found it was riddled with over 70 tumors. Despite that shocking news Leslie still danced and rescued animals. Her indominatable fighting spirit kept her going. She began experimental medical treatments and when radiation therapy took her trademark long hair she still continued to dance. She did not want to let the cancer win. She believed one of the reasons cancer wins was when the person allowed it to win and didn't put up a fight. When the news of her cancer was known co-workers, friends, and fans did what they could to help. Penthouse magazine/Bob Guccione paid for all round trip air travel for her when she needed to fly to get her medical treatments. Vivid Video paid her rent for an entire year. Her friends in the adult movie industry held fundraisers to help try and pay for her medical costs. Her strong desire to live aided her in fighting her battle with cancer. Her will to live and love of her husband and animals allowed her two week lease on life to become 2 years.
Leslie told a friend, Xcitement magazine writer, Cindi Loftus, that she had a dream about angels and when she had that dream she felt she would be okay when the time was to come to say goodbye to this world.
The angels came for her on August 4th 2000.
