Life and career

Mariko Kawana was born on November 9, 1967[2] (although some sources give her birth date as August 23, 1967[3]). After graduating college she worked as a freelance writer and in a publisher's Design Department.[2]

AV debut

She entered the adult video (AV) industry with her release, 34 Year Old Mother Mariko, for the SOD studio in September 1999, at age thirty-one.[4] This makes her one of the earliest AV actresses in the "mature woman" or "madame" (熟女 or jukujo) category of performers[5] whose popularity in Japanese porn began in the mid-1990s.[6] She appeared in two early videos for Kuki, one in the bukkake genre (Mrs. Shower No. 1)[7] and the other (Lesbian Heaven Finger Love Vol.11), was part of a lesbian series.[8] In the softcore field, she starred in the pink film 女医川奈まり子 熟女・タブーSEX (Joi Kawana Mariko: Jukujo Tabū Sex?) with Yōko Satomi which was released to theatres in March 2001.[9]

Kawana appeared in the May 2001 of the magazine Penthouse Japan[10] and in December 2001, she received the Best Mature Actress award at the 2001 X City Grand Prix Awards.[11] The year 2002 opened with her starring in a pink film for woman director Sachi Hamano, 川奈まり子 牝猫義母 (Kawana Mariko: Mesuneko Gibo?)[12] and included an S&M role in the kunoichi video Kunoichi Is Captured for the Million label.[13] Kawana had the starring role in the pink film 川奈まり子 桜貝の甘い水 (Kawana Mariko Sakuragai No Amai Mizu?) released by OP Eiga in March 2002,[14] which was a posthumous release of pink film pioneer director Satoru Kobayashi who had died in November 2001.[15]

In November 2002, she was one of three actresses in the DVD "Love simulation game" LOVE TYPE from the VIP studio.[16] Kawana had previously been in an installment of the Wanz Factory series Performance and Direction where she starred and directed,[17] and in January 2003, she again took up directorial duties in AV Made by Women which featured actor Taka Kato.[18] In April 2003 she played the role of the dominant woman in the Attackers S&M video Confinement Insult and in September of that year, she appeared in the Kyōko Aizome directed Lesbian Politicians.[19]

Retirement and later career

In August 2003, Kawana married AV director Goro Tameike, who had directed her in her debut AV and other works, and retired from the adult video industry. She says that her developing relationship with Tameike since her AV debut changed her and that he was her first true love.[2] Her retirement video, Mariko Last Love, directed by Tameike, was released by Moodyz in March 2004.[20] Soon after her retirement, Kawana was the MC at the 20th anniversary celebration for the Japanese magazine "Videoboy" (ビデオボーイ). Among the guests were AV stars Akiho Yoshizawa & Sora Aoi.[21]

Kawana gave birth to a baby boy in November 2004[2] and posed for a "very tasteful photobook", Sex Evolution - Mariko Kawana, during her pregnancy.[22] Since then, in addition to parenting, she has been active as columnist and novelist.[2][23] She also accompanied her husband (who had directed for SOD for 10 years) to the 4th Annual SOD Awards in December 2005.[24] In a different area, Kawana's portrait was on the cover of rice packages produced by National Farm, a company started by Ganari Takahashi, the founder of SOD who subsequently went into the agriculture business.[25]

Kawana and her husband Tameike were both interviewed for Misato Nakayama's study of professionals in the adult industry, 性職者の人々 あの世界の仕事師たち (Sei Shoku Sha No Hitobito Ano Sekai No Shigotoshi Tachi?), published January 2006 by Ohzora (ISBN 4-7767-9229-X).[26][27]
