Shannon Tweed Bio 
Shannon Tweed is a Canadian actress, glamour and nude model. Born Shannon Lee Tweed on March 10, 1957, in St. John's, Canada, she has also been credited as Shannon Tweed-Simmons. Playboy named her its November 1981 Playmate at 24. She was later named Playmate of the Year 1982. Her appearance came during Playboy's polished, high-production 1980s period.
Tweed has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 36-25-36.
Tweed expanded the frame that first brought her attention, moving into film and television with a steady string of credited roles. Her screen work favored the kinds of genre projects that matched the magazine image—tightly edited, camera‑aware performances that kept her in regular casting conversations for parts that traded on glamour as much as plot.
Among those credits she took leading turns in erotic thrillers, most notably appearing as a siren in Indecent Behavior. Roles like that leaned into a particular on‑screen persona: attention‑getting, formally composed, and written to occupy that midline between mainstream television work and late‑night genre cinema.
Her relationship with the glossy pages that raised her profile continued alongside the screen work. In addition to the centerfold that introduced her to many readers, she returned in other pictorial and cover assignments, a steady presence in the kinds of high‑production Playboy features the 1980s favored.
Taken together, the documented record is of a model who treated the camera as a single, transportable stage—one where magazine portraiture and small‑screen melodrama could coexist. That duality, rather than a single defining credit, best describes the public career recorded in contemporary sources.
