Biography

Agneta Marie-Anne Eckemyr, a multifaceted individual, was born on July 2, 1950, in Karlsborg, Sweden. Initially, she pursued a career in modeling, with her striking features leading her to venture into the world of film and television. Her remarkable looks even caught the attention of Life Magazine, as she was photographed alongside the five semi-finalist actors vying for the role of James Bond in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".

Eckemyr's early career also included appearances in notable film productions, such as the 1974 Disney family film "The Island at the Top of the World". However, her most notable feat as a model came when she graced the cover and pages of the October 1975 edition of Playboy magazine, earning the title of Playboy Playmate.

As Eckemyr retired from her acting career, she redirected her creative energy towards clothing design. Today, her latest designs can be found at Älskling, a charming boutique situated on Columbus Avenue in New York City, just a stone's throw away from her apartment overlooking the majestic Central Park.
