Alexandra Quinn (born Diane Purdie Stewart on March 25, 1973) is a Canadian former pornographic actress.
Quinn was born in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. She was a gymnast and jazz singer as a teenager.
Quinn emigrated from Canada with a falsified passport and entered the adult entertainment industry in the late 1980s, while she was underage by using a fake ID. She began stripping in Canada when she was 14. Two years later she met pornographic actress Erica Boyer and moved to Los Angeles with her. Quinn began performing in adult films at the age of 16 after Boyer introduced her to agent Jim South. Quinn misrepresented her birth year as 1968, which would have made her 22 at the time of her adult film debut. Her first scene was in the film Space Virgins, and it was a five-person group sex scene with two men and two other women, besides Quinn. She won the 1991 AVN Award for Best Group Sex Scene - Video alongside Sunny McKay & Rocco Siffredi for their performance in Buttman's Ultimate Workout. By November 1991 she had appeared in approximately 100 adult films, 60 of which were shot while she was still a minor.
Quinn forgot to bring her fake ID to an adult film shoot once and decided to use her real one instead, hoping that no one would notice. She had been working in the adult film industry for over a year but had only turned 18 seven months earlier. This discrepancy on her identification card revealed that she was underage in her earlier adult film appearances. On October 31, 1991, the adult film industry began to destroy the dozens of films she was featured in while she was still a minor. She had a breast augmentation surgery on the day of her 18th birthday, which made it easier to distinguish which films were shot while she was still underage and which ones weren't.
