Biography
About Erica Boyer
Erica Boyer was an American porn star, a former adult actress whose career spanned from 1974 to 2000. Born December 22, 1956, in Andalusia, Alabama, she entered the industry in her late teens. Before her porn debut, she worked at the O'Farrell Theater in San Francisco, dancing and performing live sex shows. She appeared in 184 features, starting with 'Cowgirls in Chains' and later with 'Beyond De Sade.' She was a member of both the AVN and XRCO Halls of Fame.
Her life off-screen was notable. She retired to operate a massage therapy business in Cocoa Beach, Florida, and volunteered as a clown and face painter. In 1995, she married former NFL running back Derrick Jensen, and the couple had a son, Davis. Erica passed away on New Year's Eve, 2009, in a traffic accident in Panama City Beach, Florida, at age 53. She was struck by an off-duty Florida Highway Patrol officer; she died instantly. Her father, Joseph Breckenridge Gantt, had been a prosecutor in the 1965 trial related to the murder of civil rights activist Viola Liuzzo.
Throughout her career, she was recognized for her work, winning a 1985 XRCO Award for Lascivious Lesbian in 'Body Girls' with Robin Everett. Erica was 5'5" with an athletic build, brown hair, blue eyes, and a 36DD bust. She identified as bisexual and performed in a variety of scenes, including solo, girl-girl, boy-girl, and bondage. Her career came out of retirement for a project with Marilyn Chambers in 'Dark Chambers.' Her legacy in the adult industry remains significant.
