Leisa Sheridan Bio
Leisa Sheridan was an American model and actress. She was born on May 28, 1964, in Omaha, Nebraska, United States. Her zodiac sign was Gemini.
Leisa Sheridan was Playboy’s Playmate of the Month for July 1993. She was 29 years old when the issue was published. Her centerfold and accompanying pictorial, titled “Walk on the Wild Side,” were photographed by Arny Freytag and Stephen Wayda.
Her Playmate Data Sheet listed her measurements as 38-26-34, with a height of 5 feet 7 inches and a weight of 118 pounds. She had blue eyes and blond hair.
Sheridan grew up in Carmel, California, before moving to Los Angeles. At the time of her Playboy profile, she lived in a three-bedroom apartment in the San Fernando Valley and shared her home with several animals, including a Moluccan cockatoo named Montana, a parakeet, a cat, and a large shepherd-wolf mix named Bear.
Although Sheridan had considered modeling after moving to Los Angeles, she did not initially pursue it professionally. Her opportunity came when she visited Playboy’s Sunset Boulevard studio for a test shoot. Her photographs were selected from thousands of submissions, leading to her appearance as Miss July 1993.
Sheridan said that she felt nervous during the first part of the shoot because she had no previous experience posing nude. She later credited the photographers, stylists, and production crew with helping her become comfortable and said that the experience increased her confidence.
Travel and animals were central interests in her life. She had visited Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Hawaii and enjoyed beaches, body surfing, jet skiing, and spontaneous trips. Her Playmate Data Sheet identified modeling, acting, travel, tropical beaches, exotic animals, and Harley-Davidson rides among her ambitions and interests.
After her centerfold appearance, Sheridan continued working with Playboy and appeared in several branded video productions. Her credits included Playboy: Wet & Wild V and Playboy: 21 Playmates Centerfold Collection.
Sheridan also pursued acting. Her screen credits included the role of Katie in the 1994 martial-arts action film Red Sun Rising. IMDb identifies that film as her principal acting credit.
Leisa Sheridan died on October 2, 2021, at the age of 57.
