Heidi Hanson Bio
Heidi Hanson is an American Glamour and nude model. Born Deana Marie Duval on September 22, 1980, in Wilmington, North Carolina, she has also been credited as Heidi Michel. Playboy featured her as Cybergirl of the Month in October 2005 at 25. The feature was part of Playboy's web-first model program.
Hanson has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 34-27-34.
Heidi Hanson’s Playboy story began before her later Cybergirl appearance, when she was featured in the magazine’s “Real Desperate Housewives” pictorial. The shoot introduced her to Playboy’s online audience and generated enough interest for readers to want another look. Hanson’s heart tattoo on her forearm became one of the small visual signatures associated with those early photographs.
The response from Playboy members caught her off guard. When she learned that readers had voted for her return, Hanson immediately called her best friend and became so excited that, by her own account, she could barely make herself understood. She was particularly appreciative of the audience behind the recognition and talked about wishing she could personally thank every Playboy member who had supported her.
Away from modeling, Hanson was pursuing a considerably different professional direction. She was studying with the goal of working in radiology, imagining a future that would involve communicating clearly with patients about medical diagnoses. The contrast between clinical training and glamour modeling made for an unusual combination, but she was not limiting herself to one path while deciding what came next.
Entertainment remained another possibility. Hanson enjoyed dancing and singing, although she cheerfully admitted that vocal talent was not necessarily one of her strengths. For the moment, she was happy exploring the attention Playboy had brought while keeping her studies in view. Her profile captured someone still testing several versions of the future at once: medical work, entertainment and modeling, with enough enthusiasm to make each possibility feel open.
