Pamela Jean Bryant Bio 
Pamela Jean Bryant was an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born on February 8, 1959, in Indianapolis, Indiana, and has also been credited as Pamela Bryant. Playboy named her its April 1978 Playmate at 19. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1970s print era, when the magazine reached the height of its mass-market influence.
Bryant had enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 35-24-35.
Her centerfold was shot by Richard Fegley, but Bryant’s relationship with the magazine began a season earlier: she first appeared in the September 1977 pictorial “The Girls of the Big Ten” while studying telecommunications at Indiana University. That campus feature framed her as a Midwestern student with an instinct for the camera, an image she carried with her into the next chapter of a short, active screen career.
By the late 1970s she had begun taking the kinds of supporting parts that kept a name circulating in Hollywood casting offices. On film she was memorable as the snobbish sorority girl Terri Lynn in the college comedy H.O.T.S., played an ill-fated model in the gritty thriller Don’t Answer the Phone!, and added comic mileage to the ensemble in Lunch Wagon. A later, unusual turn came in 1994 with a leading role in The Killing Jar, where she portrayed a character written as a former adult performer—one of the rarer starring opportunities on her résumé.
Television work filled much of the same period, with guest turns on familiar series of the era: Fantasy Island, The Dukes of Hazzard, Eight Is Enough, The Incredible Hulk, T.J. Hooker and Magnum, P.I. Those appearances kept her visible across a variety of genres, from action to family drama, and supplied steady character work between film projects.
In subsequent years Bryant left the camera’s glare and redirected her creativity into painting, working professionally in faux finishes and artistic design. It is a quiet, practical continuation of a visual career—one that moved through collegiate publicity shots and national magazine pages to character roles on screen, and finally to a hands-on craft that suited a different kind of attention to form and surface.
