One of the few bona fide legends of porn, Porn Star Georgina Spelvin was one of the hottest sexual performers ever captured on film. Born in Texas, Georgina Spelvin suffered from polio as a child, but recovered sufficiently to pursue a career as a dancer by the time she was in her twenties. Georgina Spelvin moved to New York and met with some success, landing a small role in the Broadway production of 'Hello Dolly,' and performing as Shirley MacLaine's dance double in 'Sweet Charity.' It was while Georgina Spelvin was working in the New York theater world in the early 1970's that she was approached by her friend Harry Reems, who got her some behind-the-scenes work in the fledgling adult film biz. Her first feature was 1971's 'High Priestess.'

Although Georgina Spelvin wasn't a traditional beauty and was well older than most women in the scene, Harry Reems saw a certain sexy something and recommended her to director Gerard Damiano. Gerard Damiano was quite impressed by her acting and took a chance on her, casting her as the lead in his 'Devil In Miss Jones.' Georgina Spelvin's richly textured and deeply erotic performance as the virginal Justine Jones won her praise throughout the industry and made the film the classic that it is still considered today. Georgina Spelvin's sizzling sex scenes burned with a genuine erotic heat that far outshone most women in the business.

Having taken the porn world by storm, Georgina Spelvin continued to turn in one classic performance after another throughout the 70's and early 80's. Georgina Spelvin starred in no less than eight films which have been elected to the XRCO Hall Of Fame, including '3 A.M.,' 'Desires Within Young Girls,' 'Babylon Pink,' 'Easy,' and 'The Ecstasy Girls.' Georgina Spelvin has won virtually every award in the biz, including two Eroticas for Best Actress and four Best Supporting Actress nods. Georgina Spelvin's a member of the AVN Hall of Fame and was the first woman elected to the XRCO Performers Hall of Fame. A classy, always passionate performer, Georgina Spelvin is still considered one of the most authentically sexy women to ever appear in porn.
