Biography:
Tera Patrick was born in Great Falls, Montana to an English Jewish father and Thai
mother. While Tera was quite young, her mother moved back to Thailand to live permanently,
and her father moved with her to San Francisco, California and raised her there himself.
Patrick was discovered in San Francisco by a talent scout for the Eileen Ford Modeling
Agency, and at the age of 13 she was signed to a contract to be a model. She moved to New
York City shortly thereafter and her career as a runway and catalog model began. At 18,
she left the world of modeling and enrolled at Boise State University where she received
her associate's (two year) degree in nursing and a BS in Microbiology. She then
transferred to University of California, Santa Barbara, where for financial reasons she
began modeling again.In the late
1990s, Patrick transitioned to appearing in nude and soft-core features. In 2000, she made
the transition to hard-core porn in Andrew Blake's Aroused. Since that time, she has
become one of the most popular and recognized porn stars in the world, having graced the
pages of Playboy and Penthouse, where she was a "Pet of the Month" and was
selected as "Pet of the Year" runner-up, as well as having appeared in more than
seventy adult features. Patrick is noted for her sultry voice and her aroused and
enthusiastic portrayals of sex. Because of this, she has won several awards from the
adult-movie business organizations. Today, she hosts the popular webcast The Tera Patrick
Show and she is active in the adult film community, raising money for both the Free Speech
Coalition and A.I.M Healthcare.
In an interview with the Adult Film Database
in February of 2007, Patrick stated she will only continue to work in front of the camera
for two more years, but plans on releasing her starring adult titles over the next decade.
The March 2007 DVD release, 'inTERactive' set the record as the fastest selling Hustler
release ever.
Patrick has been a
frequent and favorite guest of Howard Stern on his TV and radio programs. She was featured
on the cover of the July 2006 edition of the more mainstream FHM, revealing candid details
in an interview inside. Patrick, who had been named one of FHM's 100 sexiest women, was
the first porn star to grace the cover. Tera also appeared, as herself, in episode 63 of
the cartoon series Aqua Teen Hunger Force, which first aired November 19, 2006. |
