Bambi Woods (believed to have been born c. 1959 in Pierre, South Dakota) is one of the most famous erotic actresses in the adult film industry, due to her appearance as the title character in the 1978 film Debbie Does Dallas.
Appearing in only four known films - Debbie Does Dallas and its 1981 and 1985 sequels, and another film called Swedish Erotica 12 in 1981 - the common story is that she died of an overdose of illegal drugs in 1986, but this is unconfirmed.
Woods' birth name and eventual fate remain unknown. It has been suggested that her real name was Debbie DeSanto or Barbara Woodson. A 2005 British Channel 4 documentary, The Dark Side of Porn: Debbie Does Dallas Uncovered, employed the services of a private investigator to track down Woods, yet the investigator was unable to find anyone by the name Barbara Woodson, or even verify that anyone of this name had died in 1986. In this same documentary, Woods's co-stars in Debbie speculate that she simpy retired from the adult film business to live a life of anonymity under her legal name.
In publicity for Debbie Does Dallas it was sometimes claimed that Woods had been a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. For example, a theatrical trailer has Woods stating "in real life I was a Dallas Cowgirl". This is untrue.
Quotes
- Later, Woods became an anti-porn advocate and in an anti-porn article for The Melbourne Herald Sun, Kerrie Allen quotes Woods as saying "The only reason I went in the first place was because I needed the money."
