Nina Hartley (born Marie Louise Hartman on March 11, 1959 in Berkeley, California, USA) is an adult film actress.

Biography

Born to a liberal Jewish family, though her parents were Zen Buddhists when she was a child, Nina Hartley attended nursing school and graduated magna cum laude. In her sophomore year of nursing school she started nude dancing. She made her foray into the world of pornographic movies during her junior year, in 1984. Her debut performance was in the film Educating Nina which was produced by the veteran porn star Juliet Anderson (better known as Aunt Peg), and this proved to be a massive hit. Since then she has gone on to feature in over 400 first-run adult films, and has become one of the most enduring and recognisable performers in the industry.

Hartley crossed over into mainstream Hollywood with an appearance in the 1997 film Boogie Nights
in which she played a porn star.

Hartley has been an advocate for the adult film industry's right to exist, and, prior to the rise to stardom of Jenna Jameson, had often been called upon when television news programs and talk shows required an articulate, leading adult film actress to support the pro side.

In addition to her more traditional roles in porn films, she has also produced, directed, and starred in a series of Guide to... films covering the entire sexual spectrum, from basic sexual intercourse and foreplay, to anal intercourse and bondage.

Hartley had what has been described as the longest stable relationship in the adult business, living in a threesome with her husband Dave (whom she met when she was 19), and "wife" Bobby Lilly for 20 years. Hartley has since left that relationship and has married Ira Levine (aka Ernest Greene).

Hartley is also known as an advocate for socialism.
