Kimberley Conrad, a statuesque blonde beauty standing at 5'9" with a slender yet captivating physique, was born Kimberley Coonradt on August 6, 1962, in Moulton, Alabama. As a young girl, she relocated with her family to Reno, Nevada, when she was just four years old, and later to British Columbia, Canada, at the tender age of twelve.
Kimberley's modeling career began at the tender age of seventeen, when she was discovered by John Casablancas Elite. She went on to work in the fashion industry in Vancouver, Canada, before being approached by local photographer Ken Honey to pose for Playboy. Her Playboy debut came in the January 1988 issue, where she was crowned Playmate of the Month. The following year, she was named Playmate of the Year, solidifying her status as a rising star in the modeling world.
In 1989, Kimberley tied the knot with Playboy founder and publisher Hugh Hefner on July 1, and the couple welcomed two sons before separating in 1999. During her time as Mrs. Hefner, Kimberley made a guest appearance on the popular TV series "Highway to Heaven." She has also been featured in numerous Playboy videos and even had a special newsstand edition dedicated to her.
Aside from her modeling and acting pursuits, Kimberley is a dedicated vegetarian and avid snowboarder. She has been actively involved with various animal rescue groups in Los Angeles, California, and has worked with PETA to promote animal welfare. In a surprising twist, Kimberley filed a lawsuit against Hugh Hefner in August 2009, marking a dramatic turn in her life.
