Lynda Wiesmeier Bio
Lynda Wiesmeier was an American actress, glamour and nude model. Born Lynda Ann Wiesmeier on May 30, 1963, in Washington, Washington, she has also been credited as Linda Wiesmeier and Lydia Wiesmeier. Playboy named her its July 1982 Playmate at 19. Her appearance came during Playboy's polished, high-production 1980s period.
Wiesmeier had natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 36-22-36.
Shot by Richard Fegley, Wiesmeier’s centerfold also ran as a Playboy cover image, a glossy introduction that translated into steady work with the brand: she served as a promotional model and took on on-camera duties as a reporter for the Playboy Channel. Those assignments kept her visible in the early-1980s entertainment scene and positioned her for the screen work that followed.
Her film portfoilo mixed small parts and memorable pop-culture cameos. She is credited in the animated/live-action hybrid American Pop (credited as her screen debut in supplied material) and turned up in mainstream comedies and action pictures such as Private School, Teen Wolf and Malibu Express, where her looks and presence fit the era’s brisk, youth-driven casting.
The path to that spotlight was not direct. Childhood years that included moves around the United States and a spell in Germany preceded a family landing in Los Angeles; before stepping in front of the camera she worked as a receptionist in a doctor’s office. Those ordinary details—day jobs, cross-country moves—sit quietly behind the more public-facing chapters of her life.
Later she moved away from full-time entertainment work, taking a position as an office manager in Lafayette, Louisiana, before returning to Southern California. Lynda Wiesmeier died on December 16, 2012; the record of her brief, visible run in magazines and on film remains one tidy emblem of an era when a centerfold could open a dozen different doors.
