Bonnie Large Bio
Bonnie Large is an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born on September 9, 1952, in Glendale, Arizona. Playboy named her its March 1973 Playmate at 20. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1970s print era, when the magazine reached the height of its mass-market influence.
Large has natural breasts, blue eyes and brown hair. Her measurements are 36-23-36.
She made Playboy history becoming the first Playmate to appear clearly full-frontal nude in her centerfold. While Marilyn Cole was the first to pose fully nude, Bonnie's pictorial-photographed by William and Mel Figge-marked a bold moment in Playboy's evolving presentation of beauty and sensuality.
But Bonnie's story extends far beyond her iconic pictorial. A natural beauty with brains and ambition, she was already making waves before Playboy took notice. In 1969, she was a finalist for the Rose Parade Queen and Court, but was ultimately disqualified for being too young-still a junior in high school at the time. She later worked as a magician's assistant and a marketing professional before stepping into the world of Playboy.
Following her Playmate fame, Bonnie's curiosity and creativity flourished. She wrote book of erotic poetry, offering an intimate glimpse into her poetic soul. She also took on a leadership role within the Playboy Playmate Alumni Association, helping to maintain the legacy and connection between generations of Playmates. Her sole foray into acting was a small role as the model Carolyn in "The Happy Hooker Goes to Washington".
But perhaps Bonnie's most fascinating transformation came later in life. She shifted her focus toward alternative therapies, dedicating herself to healing others. She became a specialist in neurotherapy, biofeedback therapy, and hypnotherapy, helping children with attention deficit disorder, academic struggles, and emotional difficulties.
Bonnie Large's legacy is one of beauty, boldness, and deep compassion. From making Playboy history to pioneering therapeutic practices, she has lived a life of transformation, proving that true allure lies in the ability to evolve, explore, and inspire.
