Sex: female
Written by Ben Marco for AVN Magazine:
Way back in the late-'70s to mid-'80s, being an "older woman" in the adult industry wasn't quite the encumbrance that it seems to be today. Slim, busty Texan Honey Wilder was able to parlay her advanced age to a level of porno fame during that era in titles such as Taboo 2-4, Famous Ta Ta's, Wild Dallas Honey, Genital Hospital, Sperminator, Bubble Gum, Great Sexpectations, Lesbionic Women, Lust Tango in Paris, Wilder at Heart, Night Hunger and Play It Again Samantha. She also played Amber Lynn's mother in If My Mother Only Knew. AVN was unable to locate Wilder for an interview, but we spoke with industry historian Jim Holliday, who offered a few recollections of this month's Hall of Fame inductee.
"She was an occasional lead; often support. [She performed in] older mature woman roles, meaning she was always somebody like Kevin James' mother or older sister, or the foxy widow, or something like that. Sort of the equivalent of Cheri Taylor a decade earlier, in that her best quality was an unbridled enthusiasm for sex."
While Holliday noted that Wilder was never known for any sexual specialties (no 400 chopsticks up this lady's ass), he spoke highly of her acting abilities.
"She was very funny; a good comedienne-type. In that period Lisa DeLeeuw was sort of the Lucille Ball of porn; humongous breasted, brash and wacky - and Honey was a brunette, deep sexy voice; also very funny. She did the older schoolteacher seducing the young student kind of thing.
"[She was] the consummate character actress.
