Sunset Thomas
- Actress
Born in Sikeston, Missouri, Thomas was the youngest of eleven siblings and had a rough childhood that included an absent father. She moved around often in her youth with her family, living in various states including Virginia, Georgia, Texas, and Tennessee. She spent her teenage years in Daytona Beach, Florida. As a teenager in Daytona Beach, she describes herself as a very nerdy kid who wore coke bottle glasses and never got much attention. She kept to herself and didn't have a lot of friends. She dropped out of high school in the tenth grade. She moved to Ft. Lauderdale where she was worked as a waitress and "trophy girl" at the local NASCAR track. Thomas shot her first adult film at age 18. She met and fell in love with Zack Thomas and they were married five months after meeting, and soon after headed for L.A. to stake their claims on adult stardom. Sunset pursued straight film work for a time (landing roles in many "B" movies, including Witchcraft IV: The Virgin Heart (1992)). Sunset took some time off from film work during her pregnancy, but came back soon with a vengeance. She starred in several amateur videos with him before moving on to bigger and better things. She divorced Thomas in 1993 and moved in with Dennis Hof, owner of a legal Nevada brothel called the Bunny Ranch. Thomas left the porn industry in 2009 because of concerns that not enough precautions were being taken to prevent sexual disease and left brothel work in December 2013.
