Porn Star Tina Marie was a dark-haired, dusky-skinned, very voluptuous woman "of Samoan heritage" who was active as a performer during 1982 to 1987. She appeared in a number of loops, feature films and videos on various labels before signing with Video Exclusives. Apparently Tina Marie married the head of Video Exclusives, Mark Carriere, who then withdrew her Video Exclusive vids from the market. Tina Marie later directed some Video Exclusive vids, notably some of Christy Canyon's features made when Christy came back from "retirement" about 1990 and resumed her career.
