Early life

Dorothiea "Dottie" Hundley attended Hopewell High School in Hopewell, Virginia, where as a teenager she won several beauty pageants, including "Miss Hopewell High School" and "Miss Southside Virginia". Hundley owned and operated several adult bookstores in Virginia and Maryland in the 1970s. [2] After concluding that she could do a better job than the women featured in the material she was trying to sell to customers, [2] she moved from Virginia to Las Vegas. [3] While in Vegas, she did her first nude photo layout for a magazine, which resulted in her first offer to shoot a sex film loop. Hundley then moved to Los Angeles with her soon-to-be husband Ken Yontz [3], whom she married in 1978. [4] Early in her career her stage name was "Sweet Alice" (as well as other aliases, including "Lynda Grasser".)

Rise to Porn fame

Hundley later adopted the screen name Seka from a Serbian term of endearment for a little girl, similar to "little sweetheart" or "little darling". [4] She became a star just as porn was making the transition from film to video. Seka's first performance was in the 1978 movie Dracula Sucks (a.k.a. Lust At First Bite as well as Blonde Fire), when she starred opposite John C. Holmes. Seka appeared in 24 films in 1980 alone, and another 37 films in 1981, the most important and prolific years of her career. They were capped by a messy divorce from Yontz in 1980. John Curtis Holmes (August 8, 1944 – March 13, 1988) better known as John C. Holmes or Johnny Wadd (after the lead character in a series of related films), was one of the most famous male adult film stars of all time, appearing in about 2,500 adult loops, stag films...

Seka's on-screen sexual performances included anal sex, double penetration, gangbang, and use of sex toys such as vibrators, dildoes and strap-ons, as well as lesbian encounters. She was also known for sometimes shaving her pubic hair, some 15 to 20 years before the practice became common among American porn stars.[5] Roman men having anal sex. ...

Seka's films are among the most popular erotica of all time. Jamie Gillis, who performed with Seka in numerous films, believed that she was "a bit above porn" describing her as a "white trash queen". [6] Seka was also known in the adult industry as "The Platinum Princess" [4], and on the box cover of her film Inside Seka (1980) she is referred to as "the Marilyn Monroe of porn", a quote taken from High Society Magazine. [7] Of her fellow performers, Seka lists her favorite male screen partners as John C. Holmes, Mike Ranger, Paul Thomas and Jamie Gillis. [8] In terms of women, she rates her favorite as Veronica Hart, whom Seka quoted as saying "as long as I have a face, Seka has a place to sit." [8] Seka also lists Aunt Peg, Kay Parker and Candida Royalle as favorite female screen partners.

Retirement

By the early 1980s Seka had become arguably the number one female porn star of all time. After 1982, at the height of her fame, she took a step back from her film career, claiming "they wouldn't pay her what she wanted," and turned to stripping and nude modeling while running her own lucrative fan club. More recently, she also admitted that the HIV epidemic in the mid 1980's contributed to her staying away from the hardcore sex scene, "that's why I don't make movies any more...I like to live." [8] Possessing an abundance of charisma and popularity with her fans, Seka achieved a kind of underground cult celebrity status, and (like Nina Hartley) she has appeared on television talk shows as an advocate and spokesperson in defense of the porn industry. Seka and former porn star Jerry Butler appeared on the TV show 330 hosted by Chuck Henry. Seka talked about how much she enjoyed doing porn and that financial compensation was only a secondary issue. Jerry interrupted, "Oh really? Then why is your fee between $15,000-$30,000 dollars per movie?" Chuck then asked Jerry about the use of drugs in the industry, who admitted that many actors, actresses, producers and directors use drugs because they are under a lot of pressure. When Seka said "I can't imagine why people in the business need drugs", Butler fired back, "What about 1978? I heard you were in drug rehabilitation for a whole year."[9] For other uses, see Striptease (disambiguation). ... A model in bondage cuffs with a leg spreader. ...
