Savanna Samson (real name Natalie Oliveros[1] on October 14, 1967 in Rochester, New York) is an American pornographic actress. When she started working at Scores Gentlemen's Club night club, she chose as her stage name Savanna in homage to the sister in The Prince of Tides (played by Melinda Dillon). After she began making movies she found out about the late star named Savannah and added Samson (from the biblical Samson) to differentiate.[2]

On February 3, 2006, Samson, Jenna Jameson, and several other Vivid Girls hosted the first Vivid Club Jenna Super Bowl Party at the Zoo Club in Detroit, Michigan, with a $1000 ticket price that featured a lingerie show, but no nudity or sex acts. When announced, the party caused controversy with the NFL who did not sanction this as an official Super Bowl event.

Samson started a wine company called Savanna Wines.[9], and also had a bit part in a Saturday Night Live sketch.[10] Soon after releasing her wine she was seen at several concerts selling her wine for fans of Deftones, Regina Spektor, and No Sham.
