She was a little thing, maybe 5'1" or so. Went on to complete her education including a couple of master's degrees, enjoyed a successful professional life, married (once), divorced, one child, a girl born in 1986. Gloria Root died of cancer at 57.
It's not the full exposure (itself a failure of imagination though, I agree) it's the surgical deceit and generally horrific Frankensteinography that has replaced Erotica and even replaced Pornography that is turning off our turn ons...
If you look at Playboy centerfolds with an eye to the date you'll notice there was a period where they were studiously avoiding showing nipples. Maybe the Post Office was coming down particularly hard at that time or something.

Very pretty. I hope life treated her well.

Now I'm sad.
sooooo much prettier than the full exposure that occurs today.
yep..this is so much more desirable than everything coming at you at once..

I agree with Aunt Boe. She's pretty, but somewhat in the same way as a custom 70s van.
I wonder if she stayed vegetarian?
