During the 1970s Claudia Jennings was one of
Playboy's top models, as well as the undisputed
Queen of Cult cinema. This is the complete story of
her life, authorized by her family. The book covers
her childhood, early days as a teen cheerleader, her
fi lm career, and sadly, her tragic death at the age of
29. Claudia Jennings was not just a one dimensional
"party girl." Through dozens of interviews with
family, friends and colleagues in the entertainment
business, a portrait emerges of a kind, sweet,
complex and nurturing woman who loved children and
helping others. The book explores her relationship
with Hugh Hefner, her extraordinary movie career
and the peaks and valleys of her personal life. All her
fi lms are reviewed and include behind the camera
stories from cast and crew, who were on the set at
the time. With a forward written by the legendary
Roger Corman and featuring many rare photographs,
the book is a must-have for fans of Claudia, cult
movies and cinematic history.
