In 1994, Lee recorded the album Double Euphoric with her band W4IK.[9] She toured with the same band, which was based in Los Angeles, and also with another band, based in Indiana, called Vision Quest.

In 1999, one of Lee's tracks from her 1994 release appeared on the music CD Porn to Rock.[10]^{[permanent dead link]}

Double Euphoric was re-released in September 2010, both in physical and digital versions,[9] via outlets such as CD Baby, Amazon and Apple iTunes.

Writing

Lee is an online columnist for High Times.[4] In 1993, Lee co-wrote an autobiography comic book with Jay Allen Sanford, Carnal Comics: Hyapatia Lee, featuring her true life story illustrated by the Vampirella artist Louis Small Jr.. She also took part in and appeared within the Carnal Comics title Triple-X Cinema: A Cartoon History, as well as co-starring with her friend Porsche Lynn in another issue of the adult comic book line. In 2000, Lee self-published an autobiography, The Secret Life of Hyapatia Lee.[1] In 2016, she authored a self-help book, Native Strength – The First Step on the Path to an Indomitable Life, the first in a series.[11]^{[third-party source needed]}

Personal life

She views Hyapatia as a particular personality that allowed her to perform.[1] She met and married Bud Lee, with whom she bought land in rural southern Indiana, where she has lived since.[1] The couple had two children, whom she homeschooled at their Indiana home.[1] In 1993 she retired from the industry and separated from Bud the same year. She has since remarried and had another child.[1]
