Sally Jo Todd (born June 7, 1934 in Tucson, Arizona) is an American actress and model. She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for the February 1957 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by David Sutton and Ed DeLong.
Film and television actress
Todd's entertainment career began in 1952 when her mother encouraged her to enter a local Tucson beauty contest. She also studied drama in her hometown. Todd wanted to vacation in Canada but had only enough money to take her as far as Hollywood in 1954. She took a job modeling teenage clothes and was spotted by a talent scout for 20th Century Fox.[1] That led to a contract with the studio and a movie career that consisted mostly of B-movie roles in The Unearthly and Frankenstein's Daughter. Other motion pictures in which she performed are The Revolt of Mamie Stover (1956), The Saga of the Viking Women and Their Voyage to the Waters of the Great Sea Serpent (1957), Al Capone (1959), and G.I. Blues (1960).
Her television appearances are in episodes of Flight, Dragnet (1958–1959), M Squad (1959), Johnny Ringo (1960), The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis (1960), 77 Sunset Strip (1960), and The Tab Hunter Show (1960)
Model
She was among the models who appeared at the 9th Annual Los Angeles Home Show in June 1954.[2] She also posed for several album covers and men's magazines, including Playboy, in which she first appeared in a non-nude pictorial in June 1956.
