Linda Lovelace Quotes

"When I was with David Winters I had an awesome time. I met a lot of people and had a lot of fun at that point. I went to see my first play. I saw Richard Chamberlain in 'Cyrano De Bergerac,' I saw 'Grease' in Manhattan. I saw the Alvin Ailey Dancers. I became cultured, I guess. I'd never been cultured." (Interview with Eric Danville, 1975)

Made many claims about the adult film industry and her ex-husband/manager in her books, including that she was forced to perform legal and illegal sex acts at gun point.

Was the adult film industry's first star to become a household name, and is now one of the adult film industry's most outspoken critics.

Following the end of their marriage, Chuck Traynor married and helped guide the career of Marilyn Chambers (the 1970s second most famous adult film star).

Children: son Dominic born in 1977 and daughter Lindsay born in 1980.

Was involved in bad car accident on April 3 2002 in Denver, Colorado that left her with massive trauma and internal injuries and left her on life support. She was taken off life support by her family on April 22, 2002 and died shortly after. Her ex-husband Larry Marchiano and two adult children were at the hospital when she died.

In her autobiography "Ordeal" and in the TV program _Linda Lovelace: The E! True Hollywood Story (2000) (TV)_, Linda revealed that she gave birth to a son out-of-wedlock when she was 20 years old in 1969, and that her mother put him up for adoption.

Gerard Damiano, director of Deep Throat (1972), gave Linda Boreman her professional name of "Linda Lovelace". This is because he wanted "LL" initials to represent what he considered the new sex symbol of the 70s, just as "MM" (Marilyn Monroe) and "BB" (Brigitte Bardot) represented the sex symbols of the 50s.

Linda's nickname in high school was "Miss Holy Holy," because she kept her dates at a safe distance.

Dressed up as a Southern belle in virgin-white, Lovelace arrived at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in a horse-drawn carriage on Oscar night, April 2, 1974. Her attempt to cash in on the publicity generated by the Academy Awards was thwarted when Paul Newman, husband of Best Actress nominee Joanne Woodward, arrived at the same time and attracted the attention of press photographers.
