Loni Sanders (born January 12, 1958) is a porn star and adult model. She was born to an American father and Japanese mother.
She started her career as a glamour model in 1979 after being discoved by Rupert Daines, a then popular adult magazine photographer, usually under the name Loni Sanders, and appeared in several men's magazines, like Genesis, Swank, and Gallery. But she is still best known as Haiku from the April 1980 issue of Penthouse (although not as Pet of the Month).
In 1980, after she met adult filmstar (and future husband) Mike Ranger on a softcore shoot, she went into the hardcore business and started to act in X-rated movies. Initally she just performed with Ranger and other women, but later started to work with other men as well. Some of her most notable movies: Kiss and Tell (1980), Sexboat (1980), 8 to 4 (1981), Every which way she can (1982), Summer of '72 (1982), and Beauty (1982).
After splitting with Ranger, she quit the scene in 1984 to become a production manager for Vivid Video (owned by her new lover Steve Hirsch), whereafter she only played some non-sexual cameos in Ginger Lynn films. She split up with Hirsch in 1997. She currently lives in the Los Angeles area with her boyfriend Marco, the former head of Metro Studios.
Sanders has been inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame.
