Career

When Playboy was launched, it did not commission its own photo sessions. Gilbert's photos were actually taken by a private photographer, who sold them to the Baumgarth Calendar Company. Hugh Hefner bought her photos, (along with the photos of many other models), and, to Gilbert's surprise, published them.

According to Gilbert,

In those days, I was an aspiring actress. I'd go on assignments with Marilyn Monroe. We did some calendar shots for a photographer named Tom Kelley. A few months later, I heard the pictures had appeared in a new magazine called Playboy, but I couldn't find a copy. I didn't see my centerfold until this year.

Gilbert had small parts in two films: Combat Squad (1953)[2] and The Country Girl (1954). She also appeared in various off-Broadway and college theatre productions, especially the plays of Tennessee Williams. Decades later, she returned to Playboy and posed semi-nude for a feature called, "Playmates Forever!", in the December 1979 issue.[3]

Filmography

gollark: Ah yes, PHP. PHP bad.
gollark: It should be defined like this:```app.get("/path/:thing/bees", someHandlerFunction)```in your code somewhere.
gollark: No, your config file is literally just weird code.
gollark: Anything else is <:bees:724389994663247974> because it means your "config" is very strongly tied to the actual code.
gollark: > my current website serves various domains and uses different route configs for different domainsIf they're *very* different between each domain, then you should probably just specify the domains in the config file and have the routes per domain be fixed.
