02/05 Happy ๐ฅณ #Celeboob Birthday ๐ - Rosanne Katon, an American nude model, actress, comedian and activist. She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its September 1978 issue. Beginning in the mid-1970s, Katon worked steadily in Hollywood, including a stint on Grady, the short-lived spin-off of the hit sit-com, Sanford and Son. However, the shapely actress was often typecast in sex kitten roles in R-Rated comedies such as Chesty Anderson, U.S. Navy (1976), Lunch Wagon (1981) and Bachelor Party (1984). This was solidified by her appearance as the September 1978 Playboy centerfold. Notable exceptions to this rule were a recurring role opposite Denzel Washington]on the medical drama St. Elsewhere and her appearance in two award-winning UCLA student films, Julie Dash's "Illusions" (1982) (in which she played a singer who doubles for a white actress in 1940s Hollywood) and S. Torriano Berry's "Rich" (playing the supportive girlfriend of the title character).
