Dee was born on February 17, 1979 in Puerto Rico. She was raised by a single mother in New York and also grew up in Southern California. Dee worked as a store clerk prior to her involvement in the adult film industry; she was discovered in a shopping mall by porn filmmaker Greg Steelberg and his wife Julie Rage. Dee first began performing in explicit hardcore movies at age 18 in 1997 and started directing her own X-rated features in 2003. Moreover, Dee modeled for the cover of the men's magazine Hustler in October, 1997; she subsequently both graced the cover of and was the centerfold for the July, 1998 issue of the same men's magazine.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
