Phone Sex Operators
When you dial a 1-900 number, who picks up the phone?
Scheherazade
I'm 60 years old, I have a BA in cultural anthropology from Columbia University, and I've been married for 25 years. I make twice the money I made in the corporate world. I work from home; the money transfers into my bank account daily. I'm Scheherazade: If I don't tell stories that fascinate the pasha, he will kill me in the morning.

Phillip Toledano's Phonesex project reveals not just the identity of operators who answer the phone when you call a 1-900 number, but their desires, fears, motivations, and most memorable calls.
The images and text in this photo essay are taken from the book Phonesex, which was published in September 2008 by Twin Palms.
Photographs by Phillip Toledano. Photo essay produced by Laura McClure, Gary Moskowitz, and Mark Murrmann.

p.s. Kudos to the photographer for including male phone sex workers. I spoke with many during my research but couldn't get any to appear on camera.
