Betty Page Phtograph by Klaw

Stage Name

Birth Name

Betty Page, Bettie Page Betty Mae Page
"Miss Pinup Girl of the World," "The Queen of Curves"  
"1955 Playmate of the Month, "The Dark Angel"  

   Voted "Most Likely to Succeed" in High School. After Graduating HS, She went on to college, with the intention of becoming a teacher. However, the next fall she began studying acting, hoping to become a movie star and in 1944 graduated with a Bachelors degree. Later she would meet a man that would change her life Mr. Jerry Tibbs, a amateur photographer who would take the very first photos of Page. She would go on to be personified as the "Girl Next Door" and photographed by Irving Klaw, Bunny Yeager and others. Betty Page was the "Queen of the Pinups" fame and has appeared in virtually every magazine since. In January of 1955 she became Playboy's Bunny of the Month." However, years later she was back into the limelight with the comic book "The Rocketeers,"

again people were clamoring over Betty.

   Betty made about 50 cheesecake 8 mm movies consisting of her "Exotic Dances," Cat Fights and Fetish/Bondage Films. During the 1950s, the censorship bureaus started cracking down on many (Cheese Cake) photographers and models, with Betty being one of them. It was not a good time for Klaw, Page and the others.

   Soon after she moved to Miami Florida and picked up religion. She later moved to California and chose to remain in her comfortable, supposedly married seclusion. Betty passed away in 2008 of a heart attack, but you will live on, that's for sure. She is buried at Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery.
