Heh. She should call herself Anne Dorian. She'd kill at conventions.
Especially if she wore blue makeup, a white wig and prosthetic antennae.

She had a brief role in Rosemary's Baby as the young woman who’s first recruited to bear the Devil’s child and who later commits suicide. There's an in-joke when Rosemary (Mia Farrow) first meets the girl and comments that she looks “like the actress Victoria Vetri.” Victoria Vetri is her birth name.

(I always thought her real name was probably Vicki Glass. Sounds much prettier in Italian.)

I'm always amused at finding Playboy bunnies in Trek...
She was a Playmate of the Year, not a Bunny.

Playboy magazine’s centerfold girls are Playmates. Bunnies were the waitresses at the Playboy Clubs, most of which closed back in the ’80s.

Some women have been both Bunnies and Playmates.

Oh, thank God I'm not the only one who knows that.
 
Okay, was it a cat who could become a woman, or was she a woman who could become a cat?

I never have got that straight.

She was actually Playboy magazine's "Miss September 1967" and "Playmate of the Year 1968." I wonder if at the time of original broadcast, many men recognized her?

So, were there any other women featured in Playboy that appeared on Star Trek? :)


I think what Captain April was saying about the gap is the actress name. You'll see on Memory Alpha that she's referred to only as Victoria Vetri. When I saw the thread title "Angela Dorian", I had no clue...
 
The girl who played Magda in "Mudd's Women" was in Playboy, although I forget whether it was before or after that appearance. And I'm sure you can find plenty of Playboy alumni as background cuties.

That would be Susan Denberg, Playboy's Miss August 1966. “Mudd’s Women” was filmed a bit earlier, in June of that year.

She appeared in several movies including Hammer’s Frankenstein Created Woman (1967). She was an incredibly gorgeous Teutonic blonde, but definitely no actress.

I assume you mean alumnae (feminine plural).

The Grammar Nazi strikes again!

Her centerfold appearance (on stands in July that year) would have been photographed in about March, so she actually did Playboy before appearing on ST.

I didn't realize magazines had such long lead times between photography and publication. Is that the norm in publishing today, or do they do things faster now?

Not really. They have to edit and assemble the magazine, and get it print ready before it ever gets near a press, and that process can take several weeks to several months, depending on the publication. I think something like Sports Illustrated is one of the few magazines where the photography is the last thing they edit in, and that's after setting space aside expressly for that purpose. Playboy builds their layout around the pictorials, so the pictorials need to go in first.
