Keisha (born October 25, 1966)[1] is an American erotic dancer and retired pornographic actress.[2][3] She is an AVN[4] and XRCO[5] Hall of Fame inductee.
Career[edit]
After high school, Keisha was employed as a legal secretary, then took a job as a phone sex operator.[2][3] In February 1986 the owner of the phone sex company took her to the XRCO Awards.[2] In March 1986 she appeared in her first adult feature, Reckless Passion.[1][2] A female performer had backed out of a scene, and Keisha stepped in to replace her. She went on to appear in more than 300 films and videos.[1]
In January 1987 she began stripping as a "feature dancer", making appearances at different strip clubs[2] across the US and Canada in which she would appear as the "star attraction" for the week. She would generally perform four shows a night, along with autograph-signing sessions in which patrons could get a Polaroid picture taken with her, an autographed 8"x10" photograph or a lap dance.
Elegant Angel sponsored a "Win a Date with Keisha Contest", where the winner, who was chosen by audience votes, got to have dinner with her then receive a full, nude body massage.[2] She is a sexologist and a California State Certified Sexological Body Worker, which involves a specialized form of educational erotic massage or Taoist Erotic Massage.[3]

Thomas Howell action thriller The Sweeper in 1996 and the sci-fi horror film Watchers II in 1990; credited as "Raquel Rios" in both. She also appeared in the 1988 sci-fi film Droid.
