At the time she was selected as a Playmate, Donna was working as a cocktail waitress at "The Cloister", a popular supper club on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, California. Her discovery at the heart of the bustling nightlife scene added a touch of Hollywood glamour to her Playboy story, reflecting the magazine's appeal to the excitement of mid-20th-century cultural hotspots.
In addition to her modeling career, Donna made a brief foray into acting.
