Short Biography

Moana Pozzi, often called simply Moana, complete name was Anna Moana Rosa Pozzi (27 April 1961 ¨C 15 September 1994) was an Italian pornographic actress. She was sometimes credited in the early films as Linda Heveret. She was 1.78 m tall.

Moana Pozzi was born in Genoa, Liguria. Her parents chose her name watching a geographic map of Hawaii: it means "where the sea is deeper". Her father was a nuclear engineer and he used to move for work around the world with the family. As a teen, Moana lived with the family in Canada, then in Brazil. At 13 years old, in 1974, Moana moved back to Italy with the family, where she finished high school. When the family had to move again to Lyon, France, she decided to start living independently in Rome around 1980 when she was around 19 years old.

In Rome, Pozzi started working as a model and studied acting. Sometimes she performed in TV commercials or as a walk-on in comedy movies. She was very ambitious, and in Rome she became the lover of many famous people. Her most famous secret lover was Bettino Craxi, Prime Minister of Italy from 1983 to 1987. Through his intervention, she got a job at Rai Television on a children`s entertainment program. The same year (1981) she performed her first hardcore movie, Valentina, ragazza in calore ("Valentina, Girl in Heat"), without being credited. A minor scandal ensued since, at the same time the movie was in theatres, she was still working on children`s TV. She denied being the same person, but she was anyway suspended from TV. This gave her a first popularity on newspapers and magazines. In 1985 Federico Fellini wanted her to perform in his movie Ginger and Fred.
