Alexandra Quinn is a Canadian porn star who was active in the industry from the late 1980s until the mid 2000s. Although she didn't achieve the same degree of notoriety as Traci Lords, Alexandria Quinn's first year in the industry took place prior to her 18th birthday. It was discovered in the early 1990s that Quinn's earlier films were made before she was 18. As with Traci Lords, the legality of Quinn's earlier films varies from country to country. Quinn started in the adult industry working as a table dancer at a strip club. When Erica Boyer worked there one night as a feature dancer, Quinn asked Boyer about how she could become an actress in adult movies. Boyer told Quinn she could stay with her until she found a place of her own, and took her to a casting agent. After her age was discovered when she forgot to bring her fake identification to a session and used her real ID, Quinn left the porn industry for a time, appearing on news programs such as Hard Copy and blasting the porn industry. However she gradually resumed her career in the mid-1990s and was still an active porn star in the mid 2000s.
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.
