About Lori Sutton
American actress and model Lori Sutton was born in San Mateo, California, on Friday, August 5, 1960. She entered the entertainment industry in the early 1980s, around age 20, and built a nine-year career on screen before stepping away in 1990. Her slim build, blonde hair, and hazel eyes made her a natural fit for the era's playful, comedic roles.
Sutton's early film appearances include small parts in History of the World: Part I (1981), Looker (1981), and a memorable turn as a "Playboy" playmate in Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982). She also appeared in Los albóndigas en remojo (1984). By the mid-1980s, she moved into more substantial parts, showing comedic range as the stuck-up Edith Hutton in Night Patrol (1984), a feisty police detective in Malibu Express (1985), and a sweet health spa instructor in A Polish Vampire in Burbank (1985). On television, she made guest appearances on Chips, Matt Houston, Falcon Crest, and Hunter.
Lori's career was brief but varied. She stopped acting abruptly in 1990. She is 65 years old now.
