Diana Lee Bio
Diana Lee is an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born on May 11, 1961, in Seattle, Washington, and has also been credited as Diana Lee-Hsu and Diane Hsu. Playboy named her its May 1988 Playmate at 26. Her appearance came during Playboy's polished, high-production 1980s period.
Lee has natural breasts, brown eyes and black hair. Her measurements are 36-24-35.
Lee crossed from glossy pages to the movie screen with an appearance in the 1989 James Bond thriller Licence to Kill, credited as Loti — a seductive Hong Kong narcotics agent whose brief, memorable turn also placed her in the film’s prominent title-sequence imagery. That single screen credit tied her modeling visibility to a mainstream studio moment the sort of performers seldom enjoy.
Before and around that leap she worked in Playboy’s short-form video productions, and her printed images were shaped by two of the magazine’s regular photographers: Stephen Wayda and Richard Fegley. Those shoots emphasized a polished glamour that translated readily to motion, giving her the sort of camera-ready look that casting directors could notice even in a crowded field of magazine models and bit players.
Off the set, her personal life intersected with her professional one: she was married to Stephen Wayda from 1988 until 1994. The marriage linked the model and the lens in a way that is often only whispered about in entertainment circles, and it remains a documented chapter of her public life rather than a footnote to her credits.
Small in number but distinct in placement, Diana Lee’s recorded screen work and her ties to well-known photographers provide a neat, self-contained arc: a glamour-model portfolio translated into on-camera assignments, capped by a credited role in a major franchise picture. That crossover — brief, visible and exactly the sort of late‑1980s entertainment detour it was — is the most concrete through line connecting her modeling to the wider world of film.
