Shae Marks

Playboy Playmate of The Month for May 1994

Shae Marks Bio

Shae Marks is an American actress, glamour and nude model. Born Christy Shae Marks on June 1, 1972, in New Orleans, Louisiana, she has also been credited as Shae Marx. Playboy named her its May 1994 Playmate at 21. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1990s print era, a period increasingly shaped by entertainment and celebrity culture.

Marks has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 34-23-34.

Discovered on the job rather than in a casting room, Shae Marks slid from the gym floor into the pages and screens that defined her decade. Athletic in youth—soccer, competitive swimming and cheerleading at McIntosh High—she briefly studied journalism at the University of West Georgia before a World Gym assignment in Houston brought her a chance encounter with a photographer. Within weeks she was in Los Angeles for a test shoot; the same flight that carried her west also introduced her to the man she would later marry.

Her work for the magazine went beyond a single spread. As a company ambassador she traveled internationally, appearing in special-edition collections such as Girls of Summer, Book of Lingerie and Voluptuous Vixens, and she featured in numerous calendars and video projects. Television production became a steady outlet as well: she turned up in the magazine’s own comedy series Playboy’s Really Naked Truth across its mid‑1990s run, adding acting and sketch work to her portfolio.

Marks translated pictorial momentum into bit parts and recurring genre work on screen. She joined Andy Sidaris’s action roster in Day of the Warrior and its follow-up Return to Savage Beach, and she booked guest turns on Baywatch, Renegade, Viper and two separate episodes of Married… with Children. Her genre presence extended to Black Scorpion and its related compilation film, and she even made an appearance in professional wrestling programming as a valet on Monday Night Raw.

Alongside editorial and screen work she modeled for commercial campaigns—Molson Beer, Frederick’s of Hollywood and Venus Swimwear among them—and spent the late 1990s balancing travel and promotional assignments. Married in 1998, she stepped away from public life in the years that followed and formally retired from entertainment activity in 2005. The result is a compact, late‑90s archive: a career that moved easily between glossy spreads, catalog pages and the sorts of cable‑era genre pieces that kept television and video shelves stocked.
