Kira Katherine Reed aka Kira Reed Lorsch (born October 13, 1971)[1] is an American actress.

Career

Reed was born in Santa Clara, California, and by age five was performing in school plays and local dance recitals. By age 10, she was doing commercials and local catalog modeling. When her family moved to Louisville, Kentucky, she attended the Youth Performing Arts School and then went on to graduate from UCLA's School of Theatre, Film and Television.[2]

Reed's career in erotica included posing for Playboy Magazine in December 1996, in a group pictorial of women from the television series Women: Stories of Passion,[3] and appearing in such direct-to-video (DTV) movies as Secrets of a Chambermaid, "...a soft-core film expressly designed to titillate."[4] In The Erotic Thriller in Contemporary Cinema, Linda Ruth Williams cited Reed and Delia Sheppard as examples of actresses who worked "..in B-scale erotic thrillers at the fringes of Hollywood, the obvious trajectory for a strip-circuit veteran (DTV divas Kira Reed and Delia Sheppard both started as showgirls.)"[5] The book also reproduces a quote from an article at Playboy.com, with Williams again making specific reference to Reed. "Video may have killed the radio star, but it proved a real boon to Playmates in the Eighties, who played a not insignificant role in that decade's video revolution"[6]

Reed has appeared in various R-rated movies, including starring roles in Red Shoe Diaries and The Price Of Desire,[7] as well as network television shows including NYPD Blue and The War at Home. She was a reporter and producer on Playboy TV's series Sexcetera,[2] produced the second season of the Naked Happy Girls series and was both a writer and supervising producer on Playboy's hit travel/reality show 69 Sexy Things 2 Do Before You Die.[8] >

Personal life

Reed's marriage to Anderson lasted five years.[9] She is now married to Robert Lorsch and is president of his event-production company, the RHL Group.[10] In December 2012, RHL published Reed's Score: How to Win the Girl of Your Dreams.[11]
