Tanquil Lisa 'Tai' Collins (born 1962 in Roanoke, Virginia) is a model, actress, screenwriter, and former Miss Virginia USA (1983) whose television credits include writing for and acting on Baywatch.
Collins gained considerable notoriety after alleging in 1991 that she and then-U.S. Senator Chuck Robb had carried on an eighteen-month sexual affair while Robb was Governor of Virginia. Robb denied any affair but acknowledged putting himself in an indiscreet position during a friendship with Collins. Soon after her claims were made public, Collins appeared nude in Playboy.[1]
Collins co-founded and currently runs A Chance for Children, a foundation that takes kids from inter-city areas and shows them common cultural experiences that are outside their lives.
