'''Domino Harvey''' (August 7, 1969 in London – June 27, 2005) was an English-born fashion model turned Los Angeles bounty hunter, notable within that field for being female, rebellious, and from a privileged background. Though there is speculation as to whether or not she really was a model, there are in fact photographs which show her involved in what would appear to be modeling-related work.
The daughter of Lithuanian-born Jewish actor Laurence Harvey and his third wife and widow, British fashion model Paulene Stone, she was reportedly named after Bond girl Domino Derval from the movie ''Thunderball'' (the character's real name was Dominique, though she was called Domino). However, her mother's choice of name was actually inspired by actress and former fellow model Dominique Sanda.
Harvey was expelled from 4 schools as child, due to getting into fights. She claimed that she had initially followed her mother's footsteps as a Ford model before turning to more dangerous careers, but her employment with the agency has not been confirmed. She did run a London nightclub, and after moving to California at 19 or 20, worked as a San Diego ranch hand, volunteered with the Boulevard Fire & Rescue company near the Mexican border and, eventually, started bounty hunting. She was drawn to the job after seeing an advertisement in the paper for a bounty hunting seminar which was being held by veteran Ed Martinez, who would become her teacher and good friend. Harvey's mother gave her a kevlar vest for her birthday after finding out what her line of work was.
In and out of drug rehabilitation for years, on May 4, 2005, she was arrested for allegedly dealing methamphetamines. She was awaiting trial and under house arrest at the time of her death. She would have faced up to ten years in jail if she had been convicted.
