Silvia Saint was born on February 12,
1976, in what is now the Czech Republic. After graduating
school she studied management for two years at an institute
in Brno. Later she was employed as a hotel manager in Zlin,
and held jobs in other companies as an accountant and marketing
coordinator. Financially she wasn't going anywhere, so
she decided that a career in modeling would be more rewarding
than her previous jobs. She quickly graduated from modeling
underwear in lingerie shows to nude layouts in magazines.
