Elisa Bridges Bio
Elisa Bridges was an American actress, glamour and nude model. She was born Elisa Rebeca Bridges on May 24, 1973, in Miami, Florida. Playboy named her its December 1994 Playmate at 21. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1990s print era, a period increasingly shaped by entertainment and celebrity culture.
Bridges had natural breasts, brown eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 34-22-34.
Bridges moved quickly from stills to screens, becoming a familiar face in Playboy’s video output through the late 1990s. She appeared in several Playboy Home Video productions between 1996 and 2000 and was chosen as the magazine’s Video Playmate of the Month for September 1996, a recognition that kept her circulating in the brand’s special editions and compilations during that period.
Her childhood and teenage years were spent near Dallas, in Flower Mound, Texas, where she graduated from Marcus High School. Family life involved a fair amount of travel—her parents’ work in architecture for the oil industry and international travel exposed the family to places as far afield as Yemen and Spain—which, by the time she reached adulthood, had translated into a genuine attachment to life on the water. Bridges spoke of jet skiing, boating and beach life; she lived in a beach apartment for a time and even planned to pursue a boat captain’s license.
Outside the Playboy orbit she worked steadily as a glamour model, taking assignments in Los Angeles, Miami and Hawaii and appearing for publications such as Perfect 10. Small screen credits included brief on‑camera turns—among them a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it appearance in the 1996 comedy The Birdcage—and other minor parts that kept her visible to casting directors and fans alike.
Her life ended suddenly on February 7, 2002, when she was found unresponsive at a residence in Benedict Canyon, Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County coroner ruled the death accidental, attributing it to acute intoxication from the combined effects of heroin, methamphetamine, meperidine and alprazolam. She was 28.
