Devon

Devon, born Kristie Marie Lisa on March 28, 1977, in Allentown, Pennsylvania, grew up with dreams of becoming a gymnast. Of Dutch, French, Cherokee, and English descent, she began her career at 19 as a stripper at Al’s Diamond Cabaret in Reading, Pennsylvania, after winning first prize on amateur night, funding her breast augmentation. She entered the adult film industry in 1998, debuting in Jules Jordan’s New Breed, and signed with Vivid Entertainment (1998–2001), starting with Country Comfort. Using aliases like Devin, Devin Striker, and Devon Blue, she appeared in over 200 films, working with studios like Digital Playground and Shane’s World, where she also directed. Notable films include Pirates (2005), a $1 million production, Island Fever 3 (2004), the first WMV-HD DVD porn film, and Virtual Sex with Devon (2001), which she cited as her proudest work for its effort, per Wikipedia. Her anal scenes in Pirates and group scenes in On the Street (1999) were standout performances. Devon collaborated with performers like Jesse Jane, Teagan Presley, Bobby Vitale, and Jeanna Fine. She was Penthouse Pet of the Month (January 2001), appeared in Stuff magazine, and had mainstream roles in The Man Show (1999, “Millennium” episode) and Entourage (2005, “I Love You Too”). She won AVN’s Best Interactive DVD (2001) for Virtual Sex with Devon, NightMoves’ Best Video (2002) for Devon Stripped, and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame (2010). She directed Devon Does Baja (2007) for Shane’s World but ended her contract after alleging inappropriate behavior by an actor.
