Maria Yumeno

Maria Yumeno is a Japanese pink film, adult video actress and gravure model. In 2003, she was called one of Japan's highest-earning AV performers and "probably its most famous." Many of her movies emphasized her large bust and thin body. Maria Yumeno was born in Tokyo, Japan on August 17, 1978 according to her standard profiles but an interview published in 2003 declares that the "24-year-old from Tokyo is in fact a 30-year-old from Yamaguchi." Yumeno comes from a broken family, as her father left when she was a child. After leaving school, she worked for a time as a graphic designer. As with many other AV actresses, Yumeno was found by a scout in Tokyo's Shibuya district where the penniless Yumeno accepted an offer of a "modelling audition" to make money. She made her debut in adult videos in late 1998 with the h.m.p. release The Wild Bust. Soon afterwards she appeared in a nude pictorial set for the Japanese men's magazine Bejean.
