Trivia
Playboy Playmate of the Month January 1955
After she faded from public view in the 1960s, many conflicting rumors about her fate circulated. In reality, she unsuccesssfully tried to live a domestic married life, and then later entered a religious seminary, briefly working as a Christian missionary.
While she now licenses the use of her name to promote various collectables (such as figurines, t-shirts, and books of her pin-up photos), she herself does not make public appearances, stating "I want people to remember me the way I was."
Her exact location of residence is a closely guarded secret.
Measurements (during her glamour modleing career): 36-24-36 1/2 (Source: Celebrity Sleuth magazine)
Her photos were the inspiration for the leading lady of the "Rocketeer" comics, which was made into the film The Rocketeer.
She was given a screen test by 20th Century Fox but was never signed by the studio.
After she retreated from the public eye, Bettie was plagued by mental problems and actually stabbed three people. She was sentanced to a long spell in a mental institution as punishment. This was all a closely guarded secret until it was exposed by journalist Richard Foster.
Is close friends with Hugh M. Hefner who is a huge fan of hers.
Saw her popularity increase in the eighties with the publication of a comic, The Betty Pages. She is now recognised as something of an icon.
Is one of six children.
Graduated from Peabody College with a Bachelor of Arts degree.
Her favorite drink is Root beer (Hires)
Can play the guitar and piano.
In the 1950s, the United States Congress called her to testify to explain the photos in which she appeared. While she never appeared before the committee (she was excused), the negatives of dozens of her photos were destroyed by court order. The negatives that survived were illegal to print for many years.
While she was posing, she was studying drama at a theater workshop. She worked hard to lose her southern accent, because it was keeping her from getting more mainstream work.
Is portrayed by Paige Richards in Bettie Page: Dark Angel and by Gretchen Mol in The Notorious Bettie Page
