Autumn Jackson, also known as Autumn Williams, (born September 20, 1974) first came to media attention in 1997 for her extortion attempt against comedian Bill Cosby.
Jackson had threatened to go to the tabloids with her claim to be Cosby's illegitimate child unless Cosby paid her $40 million USD.
Jackson's disputed paternity claim against Cosby resurfaced in the media in 2014, as a result of sexual assault allegations against Cosby.
