Her mother would take her to see the Spanish language movies of Isabel Sarli, a passionate, voluptuous Argentinian actress with a charismatic power over men whom Vanessa credits as a big influence in her life.[3] She describes her mother as "an innocent, deeply religious woman who didn't really relate to Sarli's sexuality," [4] while her young daughter focused on Sarli's power over men, and wanted that power for herself. After an early childhood as religious as her mother's, Sanchez dropped out of school in the 8th grade, tired of the sheltered life imposed on her at home. She studied coding, and became a computer programmer at age 18, then abandoned the straight life altogether to live in a series of stolen Volkswagen Beetles with a criminal boyfriend.[5] When that adventure ended two years later she became "a waitress, then a topless barmaid, and finally a go-go dancer" before accepting her first role in the film China Doll because "it paid $150, which was exactly my half of the rent,"[6][7] so she could join a boyfriend in Europe. In her illustrated biography from TASCHEN Publications (Vanessa del Rio: Fifty Years of Slightly Slutty Behavior, 2007) she revealed to editor Dian Hanson that she also worked as a streetwalker and call girl[8][9] prior to entering adult films.For her stage name, she took the name "Vanessa" from a childhood friend and "del Rio" from actress Dolores del Río at the suggestion of another friend who was a movie buff.[10]Del Rio made her first adult film in 1974.[11] In a span of 12 years, she appeared in 81 films[6] and countless "loops" – 10 minute film clips produced for use in sex shop peep shows.Del Rio retired from adult films in 1986, in part due to the AIDS scare prevalent at the time.[3][6] She then worked as a feature dancer and magazine model.[6] After that she used her coding skills to create her own website, produce original content, continued to appear in magazines, and made special appearances at award shows and conventions.During and after her career she appeared on many TV shows as herself, including a 1996 episode of NYPD Blue titled "Head Case" (Season 3, episode #15).[12][13] In 2008, she made a cameo opposite Bernie Mac as the amorous "full-figured neighbor" in the film Soul Men, which also co-starred Samuel L. Jackson.[14] * PLEASE NOTE I CAN NOT combine shipping for orders going through Ebays international shipping program I ACCEPT PAYPAL ONLY FOR PAYMENT PLEASE !
