A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).

Model and actress Dani Minnick started off in small roles on TV, including a part in the Emmy-nominated A Rumor of War (1980). A few guest spots on TV shows followed before she became the face of Virginia Slims cigarettes, a modeling gig which offered her worldwide exposure in both magazines and on TV from 1983 until 1987. Afterward, she continued to act until the mid-90s and had her highest profile part as Rebecca Morrison on the daytime soap Days of Our Lives in 1993. She could also be seen in horror films like From the Dead of Night (1989) and The Sleeping Car (1990). In recent years she's stepped behind the camera with the award-winning independent feature Falling Like This (2001) and has just completed work on the documentary The Needs of Kim Stanley.

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.
