Adult Film Career
Kerman started his adult film career in 1975. He first appeared in performing on-screen sex with director Roberta Findlay in Anyone But My Husband. Kerman then became one of the biggest stars of the Golden Age of Porn, star of such classics as Debbie Does Dallas, Gerard Damiano's The Satisfiers of Alpha Blue and Henri Pachard's The Devil in Miss Jones Part II. He won the Adult Film Association of America Best Supporting Actor award for Outlaw Ladies in 1981, and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 1998. His last role in an explicit hardcore film was in 1987's Corporate Assets.
Kerman highly regrets his participation in Debbie Does Dallas as he feels it ruined his mainstream career. In the 2005 Channel 4 documentary Debbie Does Dallas Uncovered he states: "In retrospect I'm really sorry that I did it, because I probably ruined the best years of my life as an actor."

Famous quotes containing the words adult, film and/or career:
“All adults who care about a baby will naturally be in competition for that baby.... Each adult wishes that he or she could do each job a bit more skillfully for the infant or small child than the other.”
—T. Berry Brazelton (20th century)
“Lay not that flattering unction to your soul,
That not your trespass but my madness speaks;
It will but skin and film the ulcerous place,
Whilst rank corruption, mining all within,
Infects unseen.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
