Hyapatia Lee (born November 11, 1960) is the stage name of a former American exotic dancer, pornographic actress, recording artist, and current writer and author. As a one-quarter Cherokee, she was the only Native American in the adult business during her tenure; this contributed to her becoming one of the best-known pornographic actresses of the Golden Age of Porn. Lee is an AVN and XRCO Hall of Fame inductee. She is an online columnist for High Times.
Lee was born in Haughville, Indianapolis, to teenage parents and is of Cherokee and Irish descent. She attended the local high school, where she performed in several musicals.
After winning the Miss Nude Galaxy contest in Roselawn, Indiana in 1979 (and again in 1981), its owner cast Lee in The Young Like It Hot (1983). Her movie debut happened in Naughty Girls Need Love Too, also from 1983.
In 1984, she appeared in Sweet Young Foxes. In that same year she appeared in Penthouse magazine, in the same September record-breaking best-selling issue that featured Miss America 1984, Vanessa Williams.
Over time, her husband Bud Lee joined the cast and crew of her films. Together they created the second-most-expensive pornographic film (at the time), The Ribald Tales of Canterbury (1985), with Bud directing and Hyapatia starring and screenwriting a version of Geoffrey Chaucer's classic The Canterbury Tales.
