Biography

Rayne was born in Detroit and raised in Northern California.[4] She was of mixed Italian, Scottish and Native American descent.[1][5] She attended California State University, Los Angeles.[6] She worked as an extra in mainstream films and television shows prior to her adult film career.[6]

Rayne entered the adult film industry in 2005. Early in her porn career she resided in Santa Monica, California.[6] In April 2015 she announced her official retirement from adult films.[7]

She came out of retirement to shoot her final adult film, Wanted, later that year.[8] She had already promised the film's director, Stormy Daniels, that she would be part of the film six years prior to shooting it.[7] Besides performing, she had also worked in the adult-film industry as a director, producer, and editor.[7]

Rayne was a BDSM lifestyler both on-screen and in her personal life.[9] She owned a horse farm and was a riding instructor.[7] She had battled both non-Hodgkin lymphoma and uterine cancer.

Death

Rayne collapsed and died at her home in Los Angeles, California on April 2, 2016. In late June 2016, the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner's office announced that her death was caused by an accidental drug overdose through the consumption of a combination of cocaine and alcohol.[3]
