Ebook: Connie Kreski

Connie Kreski was among the most visible of the Playboy Playmates of the 1960s. She was Playmate of the Month of January 1968 and was selected Playmate of the Year. Soon she entered movies and television, playing small roles in a variety of popular 1970s comedy series and crime dramas. Among these were Ironside with Raymond Burr and Rowan and Martin's Laugh In. Her most remembered film role is Mercy Humppe in an Anthony Newley produced movie that carried an X rating when it debuted in theaters. From a family of Polish Catholics Kreski got into hot water for posing nude, particularly with her mother and an older sister. Connie's life was much too brief even though it had great highlights with Playboy and as an entertainer.
