Terri Hall came to New York to try and make it as a ballet dancer but, common story, found it difficult to find success as a dancer and began doing porn for the easy money. She did a number of nitty gritty 8 mm peep show loops but also starred in a number of porn chic and porn noire flicks including: Opening of Misty Beethoven (1975), Story of Joanna (1975), Terri's Revenge (1975), Dominatrix without Mercy (1976), Honeymooners (1976), Rollerbabies (1976), and The Ganja Express (1978). She also posed for photographer Robert Mapplethorpe and artist Alex Schloss.
