- "Georgina Spelvin" is also the traditional theatrical pseudonym used by actresses who wish to remain anonymous. Its male equivalent is George Spelvin. It is used in film, television, and theatre much as Alan Smithee is used as a mask for directors.
- She suffered from polio as a child, but recovered sufficiently to pursue a career as a dancer when she reached her 20s.
- As of 2002 she was a Computer Production Designer in Hollywood.
- Retired from adult films in 1982, at age 47, she works in the graphic arts business.
- Profiled in the book "Golden Goddesses: 25 Legendary Women of Classic Erotic Cinema, 1968-1985" by Jill C. Nelson.
- At first I wanted to be an opera singer but my voice wasn't good enough. My second choice was ballerina. After that it was a series of compromises.
- [on how she chose her stage name] I adopted the pseudonym Georgina Spelvin soon after [The Devil in Miss Jones (1973)] was released and became an instant hit. Before that I used a lot of silly names. When I played a French maid, I was Ona Tural (au natural). Then there was Claudi Clitoris, and many others. We'd sit around laughing and make them up. But when "Miss Jones" became a national monument, the name Georgina Spelvin was institutionalized along with it, so I kept that name.
- [interview with porn journalist Luke Ford, 1998] At 62, my dimensions are the same, but everything is closer to the ground. Weight now at 125. Desk job. What are you gonna do?
