Christy Canyon is more than a porn star, she is an icon. From 1984 to 1997, Christy appeared in nearly 200 adult films and has won several industry awards, and is a member of the XRCO Hall of Fame. She has written a book, hosts a radio show for Playboy, and has dated celebrities such as Robin Williams, Max Baer Jr., directors John Frankenheimer and Adam Rifkin.

Throughout the years, Christy Canyon has retired on numerous occasions, mostly due to her marital status, however, these retirements never seem to last very long and every time she returns, we are treated to a great new performance by this award-winning adult star.

Her first appearance in an adult flick was in 1984 when Christy won the hearts of critics and viewers alike with her dark beauty, sumptuous body, and powerful orgasmic scenes that are filled with such wanton abandon that one female critic described them as almost a personal embarrassment to watch.

A California native, Christy was born June 17, 1966, and holds an associate’s degree in merchandise marketing, which she now puts to use selling her personal items on eBay.

Christy attended school with TV personality Adam Carolla, who is probably best known as the co-host of The Man Show and Love Line. Adam Carolla said when they were in school he once asked Christy out on a date but she never showed up.

Christy Canyon’s sensual dark beauty can be attributed to her Armenian and Italian heritage. But her long brunette hair and deep, dark brown eyes only serve to highlight her more than formidable 36DD-24-36 physique. Christy has won several best female performances awards and has been inducted into the XRCO hall of fame.

Christy Canyon has had several stage names throughout her career, including Christie Canyon, Cristy Canyon, Missy, Tara White, Sara Wine, Tara Wine, Linda Daniel, DeeDee. But no matter what name she performs under, we are just happy to see Christy do what she does best.

Christy was discovered in 1984 by a guy named Greg “Rocky” Rome, who used to be in the adult entertainment industry. He met her in front of the apartment building where she was living at the time and told her she would be a great model. In September of 1984, Christy started modeling, the first magazine she appeared in was an issue of “Velvet” in 3-D. Christy really liked modeling from the start and later said “It was pretty cool to see myself in my first layout, no less in 3-D!”.

That same year she did her first X-rated movie. In several interviews Christy claimed her first adult movie was “On Golden Blonde”, but actually that was not the case. Christy’s first appearance in the adult video was in a loop on the Swedish Erotica #57 tape. It was a group sex scene with Ron Jeremy and another couple.

The next day she made her first feature video for Paradise Visuals in a video called “Night of Loving Dangerously”. This title is no longer available because of the presence of the then underage Traci Lords. Christy immediately followed with “On Golden Blonde” for that same company and her career as an adult film star was on its way.
