Sue Williams Bio
Sue Williams is an American actress, glamour and nude model. Born Karen Sue Hamilton on May 13, 1945, in Glendale, Arizona, she has also been credited as Sue Hamilton. Playboy named her its April 1965 Playmate at 19. Her appearance came during the 1960s, as Playboy grew into a major force in American magazine publishing.
Williams has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 34-20-34.
In 1964, Sue began working with photographers Bill and Melba Figge, whom she met through her sister, an artist at the Figge Studio in Glendale. Her breakthrough came when Melba Figge submitted photos of Sue to Playboy. Hugh Hefner, impressed by her charm, requested more from the Figges, and Sue was selected as Playmate of the Month under the name Sue Williams.
She holds a unique place in Playboy history as the first centerfold photographed by Figge Studio and the first Playmate under five feet tall. Additionally, Sue was reportedly the first Playmate to have breast implants.
Following her Playboy appearance, Sue signed with American International Pictures and adopted the stage name Sue Hamilton. She made her film debut in "How to Stuff a Wild Bikini" as "Peanuts," appearing alongside other Playmates like Marianne Gaba and Jo Collins. Her career with AIP continued with roles in four more films released between 1965 and 1966.
Sue also gained visibility through nationally syndicated magazine articles that promoted AIP's releases, including features such as "Starlets Seek Natural Look" and "Use Makeup the Professional Way." Additionally, she participated in the "Super-face" advertising campaign for "Sheer Magic" makeup, alongside fellow AIP starlet Patti Chandler, to promote films like "The Ghost in the Invisible Bikini" and "Fireball 500".
Sue Hamilton's contributions to modeling and film during her brief yet memorable career left a lasting impression on 1960s pop culture.
