Susie Owens Bio
Susie Owens is an American glamour model, actress, and businesswoman. Born Susie Diane Owens on May 28, 1956, in Arkansas City, Kansas, she has also been credited as Cora Street. Playboy named her its March 1988 Playmate at 31. Her appearance came during Playboy's polished, high-production 1980s period.
Owens has natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 35-25-35.
Owens had already begun appearing in the magazine years before the centerfold: her first known Playboy pictorial was the 1983 “Women in White” spread, an early showcase that kept a certain blonde archetype in circulation while her career quietly widened its scope. What followed was less a straight line than a series of reinventions that moved between image-making and hands-on creativity.
She spent time at the Playboy Mansion and pursued small-screen and B-movie work, building experience of bit parts and genre turns that suited the era’s late-night cult circuits. Off the set she became the physical model for a comic-book heroine called Flaxen — a nurse-tinged, blonde figure whose adventures appeared in two comic issues during the 1990s — an unlikely crossover that folded illustration and glamour into a single pop-culture persona.
Alongside acting and publicity, Owens developed a parallel life as a maker. She began formulating a signature perfume called Child and cultivated a devoted following for the scent; reporting and profiles from later years credit high-profile admirers and describe the fragrance as a cult favorite. Rather than launch from a boutique, the business took shape in a modest, hands-on way — bottles blended and labeled from a Dallas garage before demand turned the project into a full-time endeavor.
The arc from pictorial model and occasional actress to entrepreneur and creator gives a practical shape to Owens’s public image: she used the visibility the pages afforded to fund and fuel new projects, and those projects — comics, scent and small-screen appearances — have been the means by which her presence continued to circulate long after any single magazine spread.
