Karin Schubert (born November 26 1944 in Hamburg, Germany) is a German actress who enjoyed a career playing dramatic roles in the 1970s before becoming a porn star in the 1980s and 1990s.
Trained as an actress, in 1972, she achieved great success with two films: Bluebeard, directed by Edward Dmytryk, and Yves Boisset's L'Attentat (The Assassination). The same year, she appeared along with Edwige Fenech in the sex comedy Quel gran pezzo dell'Ubalda tutta nuda e tutta calda (Ubalda, All Naked and Warm). She then started to appear in adventure films, especially with Italian actor George Eastman. The first film of this kind was a Three Musketeers spaghetti Western adaptation, Tutti per uno...botte per tutti (Three Musketeers of the West) in 1973. With her naïve yet sexy looks she drew the attention of director Joe d'Amato, and began to take part in his erotic trash films, the most notable of which is Emanuelle - perchè violenza alle donne? (Emanuelle Around the World) (1977) where she plays Cora Norman, the counterpart of Laura Gemser.
In 1985, at the age of 40, she decided to appear in pornographic films and made a contract for a yearly income of 180,000 DM with the conditions that she won't appear in anal sex and bestiality scenes and won't perform with black partners (in 1984, she appeared in the Playboy film production of Black Venus as the lesbian lover of the film's star, Josephine Jennifer Jones, Miss Bahamas 1979). She made her debut with Morbosamente vostra where she once again found herself playing a character called Cora, this time a schizophrenic housewife. This film is of particular significance since one can easily observe Schubert's effort to set higher standards of dramaturgy for pornography. Following several Italian porn titles, she bolstered her position as a porn star and in 1990, she starred in a three-film series called Wiener Glut also named Schubertgasse-Sex after her.
She appeared in her last film in 1994 and she eventually retired from public life.
