Linné Nanette Ahlstrand (1930-1967) was born to immigrants from Sweden. After years of working at a postcard factory in Chicago, Illinois, the 5'2" blonde set her sights on Hollywood.
She was Playmate of the Month in July 1958 and had speaking roles in Beast From Haunted Cave (1959) and Living Venus (1961). Her untimely death at the age of 36 made her the first Playmate of the Month to pass away.
“She was diagnosed with breast cancer months after we got married. It was devastating.” - Barry Snowbarger
