Ron Jeremy Hyatt was born in Queens, New York City on March 12, 1953. Ron grew up in a Jewish family with middle-class parents who had successful careers. His father was a physicist, and his mother was a book editor who served in the O.S.S. during WWII. Ron Jeremy intended to pursue a career as a legitimate actor after graduating from high school. He quickly discovered, however, that acting was not as lucrative as he had hoped. He was practically starving as an unemployed Broadway stage actor.
Personal Life
Ron Jeremy had a serious health scare in 2013 when he experienced chest pains and drove himself to a Los Angeles hospital. Doctors discovered a potentially life-threatening aneurysm in him and operated to treat it. He was released from the hospital three days later, with media outlets reporting that he had been “fighting for his life.”
Various women began to come forward with sexual assault and rape allegations against Jeremy in the mid to late 2000s. One of the most notable early cases occurred in 2014 when a woman accused Ron of raping her in a West Hollywood house when she was 25 years old. A court dismissed a similar case against him in 2016 due to a lack of evidence. In 2017, all Exxxotica national adult conventions decided to bar Ron Jeremy from future events. This was due to numerous allegations from attendees that Jeremy had groped them and inserted his fingers into their orifices without their consent.
Ginger Banks, a webcam model, was among those who spoke out against Jeremy. Two women accused Ron of sexually assaulting them at a specific West Hollywood bar, while a third woman claimed the adult actor raped her at the same location. Finally, in 2020, Jeremy was charged with three counts of rape, three counts of forcible penetration by a foreign object, and one count of forcible oral copulation and sexual battery. He was immediately arrested and held on $6.6 million bail after pleading not guilty. If Jeremy is convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of 90 years to life in prison.
Career
Ron Hyatt decided to pose for “Playgirl” magazine after failing to make it in the acting industry. After gaining notoriety, Hyatt entered the adult film industry under his real name at first. This decision, however, had immediate consequences for his family. His grandmother was listed in the phone book as “R. Hyatt,” and she received hundreds of phone calls about Ron’s appearance in “Playgirl.” She was eventually forced to leave her flat. Following a stern warning from his father, Ron began using his middle name in the adult industry, becoming known as “Ron Jeremy.”
After an incident in which his hair stood on end, he earned the nickname “The Hedgehog.” Jeremy appeared in 2,000 adult films over the course of his career. In addition, he directed 285 adult films. His credits far outnumber those of any other performer in the adult film industry, with the next most active individual having only 384 credits.
Ron Jeremy’s transition to mainstream roles was relatively easy due to his “guy next door” image. In 1980, he appeared on the game show “Wheel of Fortune,” where he won a trip to Mazatlan. In addition, Jeremy was listed as a special consultant on the film “9 12 Weeks.” He then had a minor role in the film “They Bite” before returning as a special consultant in “Boogie Nights.” Ron Jeremy made several appearances and developed a close relationship with Tammy Faye Bakker during the second season of “The Surreal Life” in the mid-2000s.
Jeremy has also appeared in films like “The Chase,” “Boondock Saints,” and “Spun.” Ron has also appeared on the television shows “Chappelle’s Show,” “Family Guy,” “Robot Chicken,” and “Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List.”
Ron Jeremy published his memoir “The Hardest (Working) Man in Showbiz” in 2007. The book, published by HarperCollins, detailed many of his exploits and experiences, including interactions with high-profile celebrities.
Ron Jeremy has dabbled in a variety of business ventures aside from his work in the entertainment industry. In 2009, he opened Ron Jeremy’s Club Sesso, a swingers’ nightclub in Portland, Oregon. Due to legal issues, the club was forced to close in 2015. He also lent his likeness and name to Ron de Jeremy, a highly-rated rum from Panama. He also appeared in rum advertisements as part of the marketing campaign.
