Tina Tyler (born July 16, 1965[1] on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada) was a prolific Canadian pornographic actress, director and is the current director of publicity for Sin City Films. She created her stage name by combining the first name of actress Tina Louise and the last name of Aerosmith's lead singer Steven Tyler.[2]

Tyler grew up with her mother's family in Germany for the first three years of her life. She has said she was "painfully shy" and a bookworm in her childhood. She worked as a shoe salesperson and a receptionist at a modelling agency before becoming a stripper at age 19. She graduated to working as a feature dancer for eight years before entering the adult film industry.[2] She filmed her first scene in September 1992 with Sean Michaels and Jake Steed.[1]

Tyler left the business for a brief period in 1994 to resolve through therapy issues in her private life arising from the sexual abuse she suffered from her father from age 12 to 16. During that time she worked for a "major Canadian arts company"[3] in Toronto.[1]

She was married to fellow porn star Tony Tedeschi from 1993 to 1994 and to another man from 1984 to 1985.[1] She remarried in October 1999 to an unknown man.[4]

Besides appearing in adult films, Tyler has also appeared on the TV shows 21 Jump Street, Booker and Wiseguy and was an extra in the movie Star 80.[3]
