Tera Patrick on AllMovie

Svelte Tera Patrick entered show business as a print and catwalk model for the prestigious Ford Agency in Manhattan before jumping ship and moving into X-rated modeling and acting. Patrick had no difficulty establishing herself as a porn star in both soft and (later) hardcore material, though somewhat unusual for that field was her entrepreneurial ability to parlay herself into numerous areas of the adult entertainment business with little effort. Her accomplishments included running a modeling agency that specialized in pornographic work, holding court as the executive producer of her own adult film-oriented production company, authoring books, and running her own adult-oriented website. On a slightly more mainstream note, Patrick also posed for the cover of FHM magazine in July 2006.
