About Colleen Brennan

With her fiery scarlet hair, pretty round freckled face, awesomely ample, buxom and shapely figure, and infectiously bubbly good-natured personality, popular 1970s soft-core starlet Sharon Kelly was as endearing as she was alluring, a potent double whammy that, in turn, made the always exuberant Irish redhead absolutely irresistible. Kelly was discovered dancing at the Classic Cat club on Sunset Strip.

She began her film career starring as Sharon Kelly in several 1970s' sexploitation films produced by Harry Novak. She also made appearances in Russ Meyer's Supervixens (1975) and the Women in prison films Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS (1975) and its first sequel Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks (1976). In 1974 she appeared in an uncredited role as a stripper in the Pam Grier blaxploiation film Foxy Brown.

In the early 1980s, Kelly began acting in hardcore X-rated porno movies under the pseudonym Colleen Brennan. Sharon Kelly voluntarily quit acting in the late 1980s because of the AIDS scare and went on to create her own home recording studio for phone sex hot lines. Colleen had a daughter in the late 80's before eventually moving to the southeast. For 15 years she worked in social services working with adults who have developmental disabilities. She has been in a long-term relationship with a significantly younger male partner since circa 1997. She is the proud grandmother of two grandchildren.
