Talk:Robin Byrd

DDD

What role did Robin play in Debbie Does Dallas? And it would be interesting to read more about her career as an "explicit" actress. After all, according to IMDb, she had been in the business for three years when she did DDD, and continued afterwards. Thanks, Maikel (talk) 11:12, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

2012 coverage in the New York Times theatre section

I'm not that interested in editing the article myself, but perhaps this will prove useful to someone else: McKinley, Jesse (November 30, 2012). "Real and Live, but Maybe Not Nude". The New York Times. p. C31. —Mark Dominus (talk) 14:59, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

The Rialto Report is a self-published source, so unfortunately is not usable for biographical info. ~Sangdeboeuf (talk) 20:59, 5 July 2026 (UTC)

look for therialtoreport.com on wikikpedia Xo4v (talk) 21:12, 5 July 2026 (UTC)

See above. If Byrd herself has spoken on the podcast, then her statements may be usable per WP:BLPSPS. ~Sangdeboeuf (talk) 23:44, 5 July 2026 (UTC)

Robin Byrd's birth year

At the end of "Bang My Box: The Robin Byrd Story," the newly-released HBO documentary about her life and career, she celebrates her 70th birthday at Serendipity 3. If this scene was shot in April 2026, her birth year must be 1956, not 1957, as listed in this Wiki. Wikiwakigurl (talk) 18:31, 5 July 2026 (UTC)

Maybe she decided to celebrate the big Seven-0 a year early for some reason. This is all just speculation. On the other hand, we have a published, reliable source in the Routledge International Encyclopedia of Queer Culture that says she was born in 1957. ~Sangdeboeuf (talk) 20:57, 5 July 2026 (UTC)

I believe 1957 is correct. Bearian (talk) 00:31, 22 July 2026 (UTC)

Recent sources covering the HBO documentary about Byrd give very different values for her age – 69 according to People and 71 according to USA Today. The best we can do is to follow the most authoritative source. ~Sangdeboeuf (talk) 03:51, 22 July 2026 (UTC)

I'm friends, and neighbors on Fire Island, with Robin Byrd. She did not ask me to edit this, and did not compensate me in any way, but I warned her that I would. I'm a fan, but my edits are neutral. I note that reliable sources name her husband Shelley as her co-producer, and nobody else. Bearian (talk) 00:31, 22 July 2026 (UTC)
