Cher Butler Bio
Cher Butler is an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born on March 6, 1964, in Garland, Texas, and has also been credited as Cheryl Kay. Playboy named her its August 1985 Playmate at 21. Her appearance came during Playboy's polished, high-production 1980s period.
Butler has natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 38-24-35.
Raised in a family that literally lived on the move—crisscrossing the country in a hand-built bus—Butler finished high school in New Mexico before turning her attention to photographic work. That restless, roadside upbringing left traces in the kind of glamour she offered the camera: candid, mobile, and at ease with change rather than polished into a single persona.
Her relationship with Playboy extended beyond the centerfold into the magazine’s broader commercial life. She appeared in several Playboy videos and a string of newsstand special editions, and in November 1988 she posed for the cover of Playboy’s Book of Lingerie, a quieter, more intimate venue within the brand that emphasized mood as much as makeup and hair.
By the end of the decade Butler moved toward genre cinema. Credited as Cheryl Kay, she played Melissa in the 1989 feature Crack House, a low-budget entry whose cast included Richard Roundtree and Jim Brown; the credit offered a straightforward screen role rather than a long-term film career. Her on-camera work thus ran a tidy arc from magazine pictorials to video packages and a single credited film appearance.
Away from shoots and sets she found a different kind of daily work: time spent as a veterinary assistant caring for animals. That practical, hands-on role provides a grounded counterpoint to the magazine and screen photographs, a reminder that the public image and the private routines of life often run on separate tracks.
