Jill Ann Spaulding

A blonde, average-built woman with a 38D bust and measurements of 38–25–35, Jill Ann Spaulding pursued a lifelong dream of appearing in Playboy. She did one test photoshoot but was passed over for Playmate material. Instead, she found recognition in a different arena, becoming a professional poker player and landing on the cover of Poker Digest. In December 2007, at age 37, she achieved her goal through a layout called "Queen of Hearts," placing her among the oldest non-playmate models. She was American and born in Phoenix, Arizona. Tragically, her life was cut short when she was murdered at 47 in Mesa, Arizona, on December 23, 2017. Her story is a lesson in persistence and the dangers of life's unpredictability.
