Rosanne Katon, playmate and humanitarian actress

The American actress, top model and humanitarian Rosanne Katon is borned the 5th of February 1952 in New - York City in a Jamaica's family. She began to perform at 13 years old in a short film for the Metropolitan insurances but she really begins her career at the beginning of the 1970's in Hollywood. She appears alternatively in R. Rated movies and in famous TV series ("Sandford and Son", "What's Happening ?", "Good Times", "Starsky and Hutch"). Rosanne seemed to have the reputation to be only a R Rated movie actress ("Chesty Anderson, Us army" (1976), "Lunch Virgin" (1981)). This reputation is solidified by her appearance in September 1978 as September playmate in the Playboy magazine. Shooted by Mario Caselli she will also appear in the famous Playboy number of June 1991 who will be a tribute for the female comedians. This sulfurous aspect of her actress career was invoked in 2001 during the famous TV show "Politically Incorrect" when she was face to face with the Jerry Falwell reverend.
