Tamra Davis
Highest Rated: 91% The Punk Singer (2013)
Lowest Rated: 13% Best Men (1998)
Birthday: Jan 22, 1962
Birthplace: California, USA
Prolific video director Tamra Davis showed promise with her initial leap to feature filmmaking "Guncrazy" (aired on Showtime in 1992 in lieu of theatrical release), though her subsequent directorial efforts didn't entirely live up to those high expectations. Married to Mike D of the Beastie Boys, Davis earned a reputation as a hipster auteur with credits on several videos by Sonic Youth and The Lemonheads as well as films like "Guncrazy" and "Best Men" (1997), but remained commercially viable thanks to work with Hanson ("Mmmbop"), Cher ("I've Got You Babe") and Adam Sandler ("Billy Madison").
