Additional info: " I... was born in the small town of Racine, Wisconsin, so I
guess I'm kind of a cheese-head from birth. My father's work
brought us to Washington, DC when I was three. My mother told
me that I was always saying, "I live in Washington ABC!"
Later on, I certainly learned the ABCs of living in
Washington! Anyway, I loved being in front of the camera and
on stage from a very early age! My mother always saw my
desire to perform and helped to nurture and encourage me by
enrolling me in ballet, tab, jazz, & gymnastics lessons as a
child. While in grade and high school I think I participated
in every school talent show, plays, cheer leading, etc.
After graduating from Robinson High School in Fairfax, VA. I
moved to Maryland for a few years to attend a local community
collage. I chose to major in radio/TV broadcasting, and I
worked as a model/waitress to make a modest living. Primarily
doing local convention shows, fashion shows, and promotional
modeling work. I got my big break into the industry when
Playboy came to town and had an open call for their "Women of
Washington" issue. From what I understand, me and about 4,449
other girls that lived in the Washington, DC metropolitan
area went to the audition as hopefuls. To my surprise, I
ended up being one of the 16 girls that they selected to
appear in the spread. I was then flown up to Chicago to shoot
with renowned Playboy photographer David Chan...and it was
great!!
This opened incredible doors for me, and I've been working in
all areas of the industry ever since. Playboy has been
keeping me busy too, by the way! Also see me in Playboy's
"Girls of the World," The Playmate 2000 Model Search,
Playboy's Nudes (letters to the editor), Playboy TV, and most
recent, Playboy's Pen Pals only available to Playboy Cyber
Club members!!
Love,Gwen
