Linda Susan Boreman was born to Dorothy, a waitress who was a control freak and domineering mother, and John Boreman, a police office. She was raised in a dysfunctional family and had a terrible childhood. Linda went to the Saint John the Baptist, and Maria Regina High School, both Catholic schools, and was pretty shy towards boys, so the kids named her “Miss Holy Holy”. Her father retired from the New York Police Department, and the family moved to Florida when Linda was 16. She already had her first child at the age of 20, but her mother decided that she would give it up for adoption. Soon after, Linda moved back to New York to attend a computer school, and was involved in a serious car accident which forced her to receive a blood transfusion.
In 1971, Boreman met Chuck Traynor, who became her husband and was kind and attentive in the beginning, but later acted as her pimp, and manager, pushing Linda into the pornographic industry. He immediately found Linda a job – to perform in short 8mm silent films. Her career started with the bestiality movie named “Dogarama” (1971), and she starred in “Deep Throat” a year later. This film became an instant hit and was played several times on a daily basis for ten years in the Pussycat Theater. It was also one of the highest-grossing movies ever of the genre.
Boreman posed for magazines such as Playboy, Bachelor, and Esquire Magazines from 1973 to 1974, and released two “pro-porn” autobiographies “The Intimate Diary of Linda Lovelace” and “Inside Linda Lovelace”. Linda left Traynor in 1974, and then starred in the comedy film “Linda Lovelace for President” (1975), directed by David Winters. In 1980, Boreman published another autobiography called “Ordeal”, and joined the anti-pornographic movement. She released her memoirs entitled “Out of Bondage” in 1986. Latterly, Linda appeared in “E! True Hollywood Story” in 2001.
Regarding her personal life, Linda Boreman was married to Chuck Traynor from 1971 to 1974, and after that, she married Larry Marchiano in 1976; they had two children, but divorced in 1996. Boreman needed a liver transplant in 1987 because of hepatitis she contracted from the blood transfusion in 1970. Linda had another car accident in 2002 in Denver, but this one proved to be fatal. After no signs of improvement, Linda was taken off life support, and died aged 53 on the 22nd April 2002 in Denver, Colorado.

#	Quote
1	[in 1975 interview with Eric Danville] When I was with [David Winters] I had an awesome time. I met a lot of people and had a lot of fun at that point. I went to see my first play. I saw Richard Chamberlain in '"Cyrano De Bergerac", I saw "Grease" in Manhattan. I saw the Alvin Ailey Dancers. I became cultured, I guess. I'd never been cultured.

#	Fact
1	On January 31, 1974, she was arrested in the Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas, NV, for possession of cocaine and amphetamines.
2	Second daughter and third child of John J. Boreman (1917-2011).
3	Third daughter and fourth child of Dorothy Elizabeth Boreman (1914-1999).
4	Younger half-sister of Barbara Boreman.
5	Dressed up as a Southern belle in virgin-white, Lovelace arrived at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in a horse-drawn carriage on Oscar night, April 2, 1974. Her attempt to cash in on the publicity generated by the Academy Awards was thwarted when Paul Newman, husband of Best Actress nominee Joanne Woodward, arrived at the same time and attracted the attention of press photographers.
6	Linda's nickname in high school was "Miss Holy Holy," because she kept her dates at a safe distance.
7	Gerard Damiano, director of Deep Throat (1972), gave Linda Boreman her professional name of "Linda Lovelace". This is because he wanted "LL" initials to represent what he considered the new sex symbol of the 1970s, just as "MM" (Marilyn Monroe) and "BB" (Brigitte Bardot) represented the sex symbols of the '50s.
8	In her autobiography "Ordeal" and in the TV program E! True Hollywood Story: Linda Lovelace (2000), she revealed that she got pregnant when she was 19 and gave birth to a son when she was 20 years old, and that her mother put him up for adoption. It wasn't the first or last time that an unwed teenager would have a baby in her family, since her mother gave birth to her half-sister Barbara Boreman when she was 18, and Linda's daughter Lindsay Marchiano gave birth to a son when she was 17.
9	Was involved in a bad car accident on April 3, 2002, in Denver, Colorado, that left her with massive trauma and internal injuries and on life support. She was taken off life support by her family on April 22, 2002, and died shortly after. Her ex-husband Larry Marchiano and two adult children were at the hospital when she died.
10	Mother of Dominic Marchiano and Lindsay Marchiano.
11	Following the end of their marriage, Chuck Traynor married and helped guide the career of Marilyn Chambers (the 1970s' second most famous adult film star).
12	Was the adult film industry's first star to become a household name, and later became one of that industry's most outspoken critics.
13	Made many claims about the adult film industry and her ex-husband/manager Chuck Traynor in her books, including that she was forced to perform legal and illegal sex acts at gunpoint.
