Lisa De Leeuw (born Lisa Trego on July 3, 1958 in Moline, Illinois, died November 11, 1993) was an American adult film actress.

Adult film career

De Leeuw started her hardcore career in the late 1970s with a number of Swedish Erotica shorts that thrust her into the porn spotlight. At first reluctant, she eventually decided to give it a shot, and made her debut in the classic 800 Fantasy Lane (1979). She quickly became a favorite with fans, who appreciated her lush body, wild mane of red hair and voracious performances.

She appeared in almost 200 films from what is now called the "Golden Age" of porn (1970-1985), and was one of the first performers to sign an exclusive contract with major adult production company Vivid Video. She became well known for performing anal and double penetration scenes, which were much less common in that era than they have become.

She was inducted into both the X-Rated Critics' Organization Hall of Fame and the AVN Hall of Fame.

Death

De Leeuw died from AIDS in 1993. It has been alleged that she possibly had been infected with the disease by porn star John Holmes. However, the last time she had worked with Holmes was in 1981, and it is believed that he did not contract the disease until the mid 1980s.
