Eve Meyer Bio 
Eve Meyer was an American actress, producer, glamour and pin-up model. She was born Evelyn Eugene Turner on December 13, 1928, in Atlanta, Georgia. Playboy named her its June 1955 Playmate at 26. Her appearance dates from the magazine's formative 1950s, when the Playmate format was still taking shape.
Meyer had natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 39-25-35.
For much of the 1950s and into the 1960s Eve Meyer’s image circulated widely in men's magazines and calendars, where her curt, cinematic poses and statuesque curves made her a dependable pin-up for photographers and publishers chasing that era’s glare. Photographic work kept her in front of the camera, but it was a partnership off-screen that reshaped the course of her public life: she worked closely with filmmaker Russ Meyer, combining on-screen appearances with production duties on his low-budget, boldly stylized pictures.
Meyer stepped into small acting roles for those projects, most notably in the short feature "Eve and the Handyman," where her presence played to the films’ comic-provocative tone. Behind the camera she moved into producing and production support, receiving associate-producer credit on several Meyer films and helping to realize the director’s taste for rapid pacing, bold framing and voluptuous leads—qualities that placed titles like "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" in the conversation around cult cinema and exploitation filmmaking.
Her life ended abruptly in the Tenerife airport disaster on March 27, 1977, a catastrophic event that claimed many lives and closed the book on a career that threaded modeling, occasional acting and hands-on film production. That sudden close left a compact but visible body of work: images that circulated in period print culture and a slate of provocative independent films produced in the same orbit as her collaborator’s distinctive cinema.
Seen together, those pieces trace a career that moved between publicity and production at a moment when American popular taste was reshaping itself. Eve Meyer’s name survives in the margins of mid‑century pin-up culture and in the credits of several cult films—an archival presence equal parts poster image and behind-the-scenes contributor.
