Neriah Davis Bio
Neriah Davis is an American glamour model, actress, and real estate agent. She was born on October 12, 1972, in Van Nuys, California, and has also been credited as Neriah Napaul. Playboy named her its March 1994 Playmate at 21. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1990s print era, a period increasingly shaped by entertainment and celebrity culture.
Davis has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 36-23-36.
Born into a free-spirited hippie commune in rural Northern California, Neriah Davis grew up without television, electricity, or even a hint of the Hollywood lifestyle that would later come to define her. Raised alongside her two sisters and brother by fun-loving, peace-minded parents, Neriah learned to run fast on country roads and dreamed bigger than the 300-person town she called home. After graduating from Bret Harte High School - where she shined as a star runner - she left the commune at 17 and set her sights on Los Angeles.
It didn't take long for the city to take notice. Just two weeks after arriving, Neriah landed her first acting role as Rita in "The Bikini Carwash Company," followed by a small part in "Meatballs IV." Modeling quickly followed - swimsuit gigs, catalog work, and eventually lingerie shoots that caught the eye of Playboy photographers.
Discovered at 20 and shooting her centerfold on her 21st birthday, Neriah became Playboy's Playmate. She appeared in numerous Playboy videos and special editions, her ethereal blonde looks and sun-kissed California vibe making her a natural standout. After her centerfold debut, she took a brief hiatus - retreating to the country for two years to recenter and recharge - before roaring back into the modeling world with newfound fire.
Her return was met with immediate success. Neriah became one of the most in-demand lingerie models in LA, working with iconic names like Frederick's of Hollywood, Shirley's of Hollywood, and a cascade of catalogs. Commercials for Miller, Nintendo, JC Penney, Camel, and Wellbody Skincare followed, along with print features for BodyGlove and Inside Sports.
A globe-trotter thanks to her Playboy agency contracts, Neriah traveled to Hong Kong, Acapulco, London, France, and beyond. She graced television screens with guest appearances on "Baywatch," "Married... with Children," "Suddenly Susan," and several episodes of "Wild On," hosted by her close friend Brooke Burke - who even named her daughter Neriah in her honor.
In 2001, Davis became the official St. Pauli Girl, adding another title to her impressive resume.
From the quiet hills of California to the dazzling lights of LA and beyond, Neriah Davis is a testament to the power of transformation - and proof that you can start with nothing but a dream and still wind up in the pages of Playboy.
