A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Ventura, California, USA
Janab Kareem is a multi-racial Muslim American Actress. She was born in Ventura, California and raised in Daytona Beach, Florida by her Irish mother and African American and Native American father along with her three brothers. She began modeling at the age of 17 and at the age of 18 she moved to NY to continue modeling and pursue a higher education. While visiting her home town she then decided to join the United States Coast Guard as a First Responder. While serving active duty Janab decided to get a waiver through the military that allowed her to stay active duty and also work in the entertainment industry (acting/modeling). Janab then competed in a national competition (MAAI) in NY where she placed first in three out of five categories and top three in the other two categories. From there she got attention from multiple agencies nationally which has allowed her to model nationally and internationally in print and run way. A year before honorably discharging from her two terms of active duty military she crossed over to acting and has then been featured in film, TV, and commercial nationally and a spoke person internationally.
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.
