Alternate names - Robert Bolla, Richard Bolla, Robert Kerman

R. Bolla was one of the best pure actors during the Golden Age of the adult industry. He began his career in New York with his first film titled The Fur Trap in 1973.

Over a career that spanned nearly twelve years, Bolla appeared in well over 60 films. But like many early adult actors, Bolla actually wanted to be a mainstream actor. Needing to pay the bills, he started appearing in adult films.

His break into mainstream films came when he became a leading man in Italy from 1979 to 1981 under his real name Robert Kerman. The Italian film industry was notified from the U.S. that he was actually Richard Bolla, adult film star from New York. Bolla was quickly sent back to the states where he as Richard Bolla continued his adult film career.

Once said in a documentary interview that he got an agent and performed in mainstream productions during the mid-to-late 1980s, like No Way Out (1987). Then, one day, the agent told him that she could not book him any more and dropped him as a client. He was devastated and struggled a bit to recover from that incident.

Bolla starred in many classic adult films, most famously Debbie Does Dallas and The Devil In Miss Jones Part 2. Under his own name, in the 1980s, he starred in several Italian horror movies, including Ruggero Deodato's exploitation classic Cannibal Holocaust, and Umberto Lenzi's cannibal film Cannibal Ferox. Most recently he could be seen as a tugboat captain in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man.

During his adult career, R. Bolla won the following awards:

1981 Best Supporting Actor - Outlaw Ladies

1983 Best Supporting Actor - The Devil In Miss Jones Part 2

R. Bolla is also a member of several other adult industry hall's of fame.
