About Heather Christensen

  • Heather Christensen (born October 1, 1979) is an American glamor model, noted for her work in various Playboy publications. She was Playboy Special Editions Model of the Year for 2001.
  • In 2002, she posed as a mermaid in the Wet and Wild 2002 edition. Christensen was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, and moved to Tampa, Florida when she was 20.
  • She was seen by a scout from Playboy, and began to model, which "sort of interrupted" her longer term plans.Christensen has a wide range of hobbies, including rock climbing, diving, snowboarding, hiking, and singing.
  • She is an especially noted skateboarder, who has been skating since 1998, first with a boyfriend, then by herself.
  • The hobby cost her a broken arm, at Skatopia in Ohio, when she fell on a metal ramp; the fracture forced her to quit her job (and her boyfriend left her).
  • She stayed with the hobby, and later lived with professional skateboarder Anthony Furlong.
  • Playboy airbrushed out the scars on her arm in her pictures, and asked her to skate topless for a pictorial (which she says was "...
  • embarrassing.
  • I was like 'this hurts really bad!'").
  • The hobby has been a conflict for her modeling, as she can't skate for a week before a pictorial, to avoid bruises.Christensen continued to study while working as a model.
  • She earned a bachelor's degree in biology, and went to veterinary school, to become a veterinarian specializing in reptiles.
  • She says she'd like to "Live in a tropical paradise [...] traveling around the world rescuing exotic animals", and has kept turtles, snakes, lizards, and frogs at her home.
  • Other hobbies include restoring a 1968 Ford Mustang.
