Miss Mina...
...is named after her great-grandmother, Wilhelmina, who was once arrested for indecent exposure on the beach. She had rolled her bathing suit up above her ankles!
...loves sailing and once spent some time as student-crew on a tall ship. You can see that very ship in Master and Commander:The Far Side of the World and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
...is an award-winning costumer and makes most of her own costumes for stage. Other costumes were designed and made by Kristen Augenfeld. She has also worn costumes made by Angie Pontani and Catherine D'Lish.
...uses the tagline "The Ivy League mind in the Combat Zone body".
...was dubbed "The Grand Duchess of Dance" by April March, The First Lady of Burlesque.
...has her fans custom made by The Scarlett Rose.
...loves tea and all the rituals associated with it. She prefers Darjeeling, with lemon, no sugar, but likes most flavors of black tea. Except Earl Gray. Her pet peeve is people who call afternoon tea "high tea" because it sounds grander. Afternoon tea is the dainty meal with finger sandwiches, scones, and petit fours. High tea is more sustantial meal, served as a substitue for supper. Common high tea dishes are Welsh rabbit, beans on toast, or scrambled eggs. High tea is so called because it is eaten at a high dining table, not because it is a high occasion. Afternoon tea can also be called "low tea", since it's taken at a low tea table. Now go forth, drink tea, and do not mix them up again.
...has an obsession with leopard print. Most days she's wearing at least one leopard item.
...is a bibliophile. You can see what she's been reading in the Boston Babydolls' Library and the Naked Girls Reading Book Club.
...loves surprises and presents. If you send Miss Mina a gift, she will pose for a picture with your present... naked!
