The Drop-dead gorgeous and sexually adventurous, Porn Star Tera Patrick has quickly shot to the top of the porno world. One glance at this luscious and exotic beauty is more than enough to tell you why. Tera's simply one of the best looking women to ever strut her stuff for the hardcore set. A naturally voluptuous vixen whose 36D-24-36 curves are wonderfully well distributed along her 5'9" frame, Tera's become one of the most sought-after women in porn. Tera Patrick was born in Montana on July 25, 1976, the daughter of a Thai mother and English father. The family soon moved to San Francisco, where Tera did the bulk of her growing up. Tera's mother moved back to Thailand shortly after, leaving Tera with her father. At the age of thirteen, she was spotted by a talent scout while wandering around Fisherman's Wharf wearing an Ozzy Ozbourne t-shirt. Tera soon signed with the Ford Agency and spent the next five years working as a mainstream model. Tera grew into a stunningly beautiful young woman, but still found that work was hard to come by for someone with her exotic features and mixed ethnicity. She quit modeling and devoted herself to school, attaining a degree in microbiology. Tera got a job as a nurse, but soon found herself pining for her days in front of the camera. She'd always been curious about nude modeling and began baring all for magazine spreads and ads. As often happens, nude modeling led to hardcore and by early 1999 Tera felt ready to take the porno plunge. After appearing in numerous foot fetish and bondage tapes under the name Brooke Thomas, Tera Patrick's first actual hardcore feature was Andrew Blake's gauzy "Aroused." Tera's breathtaking good looks soon had her climbing the ladder of lascivious success as one blistering role led to another and another. Her first boy/girl scene was in "Fire & Ice," and from that point on there was truly no stopping her. Tera's naturally curvaceous figure was just what audiences and producers were looking for as the industry started moving away from silicone-inflated strumpets. Tera was considering leaving the business early in 2000, but an offer for an exclusive contract from Digital Playground changed her mind. Her first release for them stands out as maybe her hottest work ever, the interactive DVD "Virtual Sex with Tera Patrick." Tera seems set to become one of the biggest stars in hardcore, appearing in lots of men's mags as well as plenty of riveting hardcore vids. Anyone who's into breasty brunette beauties already has her at the top of their wish lists, and Tera's passion for her work promises plenty more porno fun.
