Long Jean Silver Porn Star Biography

Sexy Amputee

Long Jean Silver (AKA Long Jeanne Silver), a pretty amputee, was born in Tempe, Arizona. She was born without a fibula and a pinky toe. The lower portion of her left leg was amputated when she was around 2 years old. The remaining stump, extending several inches below her knee, is little more than bone covered with flesh.

From New York Movie Set to California Stage

Jeannie hit the New York adult stage in 1976 and soon was living in Carter Steven's studio (aka "The Slut Motel"). Shortly after her arrival, she was featured on the pages of men's magazines like Cheri and High Society, and on the big screen appearing in Warren Evans' "Waterpower" in non-sex but highly erotically charged role. News about her reached the Mitchell Brothers, the renowned filmmakers and theater owners in San Francisco, who flew her out to join them, and there she appeared in her own show and starred in the Alex De Renzy's film "Long Jeanne Silver".

Director Alex De Renzy used the pseudo-documentary format to display Silver's sexual habits. She fucked Amber Hunt during a threesome, impaled China Leigh and Lori Blue and even goes so far as to ram it up a homosexual's ass. Long regarded as one of the more bizarre films of the 1970's, "Long Jeanne Silver" fulfills all expectations for those seeking a "freak show". She talked about what it's like to use her leg as a sexual organ saying that it's like a cock, "but it's safer; I keep it very clean, and you can't get any diseases from my leg." Other than shock value, there's not much more to this film. Perhaps, its most important attribute is that the use of an amputated leg in a feature pornographic film had not been done before.

Long Jean Silver took a four-year break from the adult movies but in 1981 she returned with a vengeance. She played Betsy Lou, the in-house prostitute in Jim Clark's follow-up sequel Debbie Does Dallas 2 (1981). Her appearance in Carol Connors' "Desire for Men" (1981) was somewhat reminiscent of "Long Jeanne Silver". In this case she filled the entrance of Serena who provided the body-double to scared-to-death Carol. Long Jean Silver worked for such famous directors as Alex deRenzy, Warren Evans, and Carter Stevens. Her on-screen male partners were some top names of the 70s and 80s such as Herschel Savage, Joey Silvera, Paul Thomas to name a few. Long Jeanne also had some famous girlfriends, including a short relationship with classic porn star Sharon Mitchell (whom she met on the set of 1977's "The Violation of Claudia), and then an infamous run-in with new age porn princess Annie Sprinkle after the two were jailed together for participating in a stump-fucking photoshoot for Love Magazine. 48 hours later the charges were dropped, and Sprinkle speaks fondly of Jeanne's "sexy stump" in her spoken word performances to this day.

Leaving the Adult Business

Long Jean Silver performed in live sex shows at the Melody Theater in NYC in the early '80s. Late in 1982, she had changed her performing name to Jean Silver, no longer showed off her plucked chicken wing while on camera, and in 1985 retired from adult cinema altogether having appeared only in 20 movies. Rumors say that she has married, got children and now works as a bar manager in her native Arizona.
