Biography

About Shannon Long

Edited by the community

Shannon Long is a former adult model, centerfold, and Playboy model. Born on February 11, 1969, in Ballina, New South Wales, Australia, she spent her formative years moving around Queensland and the east coast, following her father's construction work. By her early teens, her family settled in Ballina. Just after her 16th birthday, she moved to Sydney and began modeling. She became a Playmate in the Australian edition of Playboy in September 1985, just months after turning 16, marking the start of a prolific career.

Her early success in Australia led to an encore pictorial in 1986 and representation in the Playboy International Pageant in 1988. That same year, American editors took notice, and she became the first Australian to appear as a Playmate in the US edition, featured in October 1988. At 94 pounds, she was also the lightest Playmate in the magazine's history. Over the next several years, Shannon's pictorials appeared in many international Playboy editions, including Australia, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Turkey, and the US. Her work spanned from 1985 to 1994, making her one of the most widely published Playmates of the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Today, Shannon is retired from modeling and leads a private life. She is Australian, with brown hair, blue eyes, and a slim build. Standing 5'3" and weighing 94 lbs, her measurements were 36-21-32, with a natural 32D bust. She has no tattoos or piercings. Her legacy in the Playboy community remains significant, and her photos are still sought after by collectors. Though little is known about her personal life, her career achievements are well documented.
