Kitty Foxx (February 26, 1942 – September 21, 2006) was an American pornographic film actress.

Background

Foxx was raised in a small rural town in southern Illinois where she graduated from high school in 1960. After attending college, she met and married her husband Arthur Allen Hergett in 1964 to whom she was married for forty-one years. They had one daughter, Michelle and later became grandparents to two granddaughters. In 1978, Foxx and her husband moved to Las Vegas, Nevada where she worked as a beautician until 1983 when she shifted career paths to become a topless showgirl on the Las Vegas Strip.

Career

In 1989 Foxx was noticed by an adult industry talent scout who convinced her to appear in a nude photo layout for a men's magazine. Afterwards she was asked if she would be interested in being in an adult film and in 1990 made her debut in Nympho Heaven. Foxx would later say that she loved having sex in front of a camera so much that she quickly decided to be an adult film actress for as long as men would desire to have her. She made about 20 movies a year throughout the 1990s and starred in more than 400 adult films during her career. Her films frequently featured gang bangs and creampies. She was also well known for appearing in lesbian scenes.

Foxx gained much of her popularity for acting in the "Aged to Perfection" film series during the 90s and the Older Women's Sperm Bank series. Actors in these movies were mostly amateurs, and a few are seen on several films within the series. During her adult film career she was the publisher of Over 50 magazine where she appeared in every issue. In 2000 she launched her website kittyfoxx.com where members could pay to see her perform sex acts or petition to appear as an amateur actor in her films.

Death

Foxx reportedly suffered an aneurysm in December 2003, which led to a stroke in January 2004. She died on September 21, 2006 as a result of complications from these events. Her husband died in 2005 and her website ceased operating that same year. Her resting place at the Palm Valley View Memorial Park in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada can be seen on the website "Find A Grave" by searching Alice Janette Hergett. She is interred alongside her husband Arthur Alan Hergett and her step son Mark Alan Hergett who died on the same day as she did, September 21, 2006.
