Geraldine Smith (actress)

Geraldine Smith (born February 11, 1949) is an American actress.

Smith was born in Brooklyn, New York. She was discovered by Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey at the nightclub Max's Kansas City in New York in the mid-1960s and was one of the Warhol superstars. She co-starred with Joe Dallesandro in Morrissey's 1968 movie Flesh,^[1] but turned down his next film Trash because she did not approve of the title. She has since starred in other Paul Morrissey films such as Mixed Blood (1985) and Spike of Bensonhurst (1988). In 1980, she played the minor role of Janet in Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull.
