Awarded AVN's Best New Starlet honor in 1992, Savannah gained fame as the archetypal blonde ice-queen of early '90s porn. She became notorious for her ill-fated relationships with rock stars (Slash, Gregg Allman) and a difficult reputation within the Xbiz. She died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in 1994; her suicide attracted a storm of controversy from the mainstream media. She was most recently eulogized in the ballad Savannah: Flights of Ecstasy by Canada's eminent Black Sabbath rip-off band Sheavy.
