Erica Boyer was born Amanda Margaret Gantt on December 22, 1956 in Andalusia, Alabama. Boyer moved to San Francisco, California in the late 1970's and began her career in the adult entertainment industry dancing and doing live sex shows at the O'Farrell Theater. Erica caught the attention of Marilyn Chambers, who encouraged Erica to make her hardcore movie debut in Beyond De Sade (1979). Boyer's adult film career subsequently took off after this; she did well over one hundred and fifty movies over the course of two decades. Boyer took a hiatus from the adult film industry in 1994, but made a brief comeback in the late 1990's prior to retiring from the adult film industry on a permanent basis and settling down in Panama City Beach, Florida. In the wake of her retirement Erica started her own massage therapy business as well as did volunteer work as both a clown and face painter. She was inducted into both the AVN and XRCO Hall of Fame. Boyer was married twice and was the mother of a son, Davis. Erica's life came to a tragic abrupt end when she was struck and killed by an off-duty Florida Highway Patrol Officer December 31, 2009 in Panama City Beach, Florida; she was 53 years old.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
