Kymberly Herrin Bio
Kymberly Herrin was an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born Kymberly Ellen Herrin on October 2, 1957, in Santa Barbara, California. Playboy named her its March 1981 Playmate at 23. Her appearance came during Playboy's polished, high-production 1980s period.
Herrin had natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 36-24-36.
Her centrefold was shot by Arny Freytag, and the photography paid off in visibility: Herrin returned to the magazine’s pages as a cover model in September 1982 and again in September 1983. Those assignments sat alongside a steady run of commercial work that kept her imagery in circulation beyond the usual monthly spread.
She worked the glossy circuit of the early‑1980s market—editorial shoots for FIT, catalog and swimwear jobs, fitness advertising—and was photographed for campaigns tied to established fashion houses such as Ralph Lauren. Those bookings framed her as a convertible presence between commercial fashion and glamour markets, comfortable in studio polish and campaign-friendly looks.
Film and television offered short but memorable turns. Herrin appears briefly as Dan Aykroyd’s spectral seductress in Ghostbusters, plays the sultry Angelina in the opening of Romancing the Stone, and has a blink‑and‑you’ll‑miss‑it bit in Beverly Hills Cop II as a magazine model. She also made a guest appearance on the television series Matt Houston, folding screen work into the same circulation that kept her in print.
Music television gave her another kind of reach: she was one of the leggy figures in ZZ Top’s “Legs” video, a clip that helped define the decade’s marriage of rock and image. Taken together—campaigns, covers, brief film parts and a high‑profile music video—Herrin’s career in the 1980s reads as a string of visible moments, a handful of pop‑culture flashes that kept her face moving between magazines, commercials and screens.
