Tina Chow was born Bettina Louise Lutz to a Japanese mother and a
German–American father in 1951. In her teens, she and her sister,
Adelle, enjoyed early success as Eurasian models for (Japanese
cosmetics giant) Shiseido's advertising campaign. This was a primer for
Tina's future status as a major fashion icon of the 1980s.
She married restaurateur Michael Chow (I) in 1972, and had two children
with him: China (born in 1974), who is now an up–and–coming actress,
and Maximillian (born in 1977).
Throughout their marriage, Tina helped Michael run his successful
restaurant chain, "Mr. Chow's", and enjoyed the benefits of fame &
celebrity. The couple lived an elite and exciting nightlife, and were
considered to be quite prominent in the New York art world (artist
friends included the late Keith Haring, Andy Warhol, and Jean–Michel
Basquiat).
don't forget to mention that she died of AIDS in 1992. she was
also David Byrne's (Talking Heads) SIL.
