Carrie Jean Yazel Bio
Photographed by Stephen Wayda, her centerfold radiated fresh-faced charm and effortless sensuality - an irresistible mix that quickly made her a fan favorite.
Born and raised in Northern California, Carrie was an all-American standout long before gracing the pages of Playboy. She played competitive volleyball at Los Gatos High School and graduated in 1988, then headed south to San Diego to chase the next big thing. It wasn't long before she caught Playboy's attention - and the rest is centerfold history.
Following her breakout, Carrie appeared in numerous Playboy videos and newsstand specials, showcasing a natural ease in front of the camera. Hollywood soon took notice: she landed bit roles in films like "Death Becomes Her" and "Mr. Baseball", and guest-starred on TV hits like "Silk Stalkings" and "Renegade."
Off-camera, Carrie kept her cool. In 2003, she married writer-director Mark Steilen, and the couple settled into life in L.A.'s Los Feliz neighborhood. Whether flashing across the screen or remembered in glossy perfection, Carrie Jean Yazel remains a quintessential Playboy beauty - athletic, poised, and endlessly captivating.
