Editing Ron Jeremy (section)

==Trivia==
*He is Jewish.
*Prior to becoming an adult film star in 1979, he was a special education teacher.
*He entered the industry after his girlfriend sent pictures of him to ''Playgirl'' magazine.
*He used his middle name as his stage name as his father expressed disapproval of using their last name, saying that "he would kill him."
*He becamed known as the Hedgehog after a film shoot in the California mountains. After suffering near hypothermia due to the cold weather (he arrived at the shoot expecting the weather to be warm so he only wore a t-shirt and shorts), he took a shower which turned him pink and caused his hair to stand. Fellow adult film star William Margold jokingly said that he looked like a hedgehog and Jeremy has since embraced the nickname.
*A joke in the adult industry was that "the kinkier acts some actresses would not perform were [[bestiality]], sadomasochism, and sex with Ron Jeremy", because he had an atypical appearance for a porn star.
*He was an extra in the film ''Ghostbusters''.
