Angela Dorian (Victoria Vetri) - Playmate of the Year 1968

Victoria Vetri (born September 26, 1944) is an American model and actress.

Vetri was born in San Francisco, California to parents who were immigrants from Italy. She attended Hollywood High School in Hollywood, California between 1959 and 1963 and later studied art at Los Angeles City College. She began acting and modeling in her teens.

Though also a singer and dancer, she rejected the role of the voice dub for Natalie Wood in West Side Story (1961). Of this she remarked, "I did not want to be known as a standby." (Marni Nixon ultimately accepted the work.) She also auditioned for the title role in the Stanley Kubrick adaptation of Lolita, but she lost the role to Sue Lyon. In 1965 she played Debbie Conrad in the title role of the Perry Mason episode, "The Case of the Golden Girls." She was also writing poetry and playing guitar during this period.

Using the name Angela Dorian, Vetri was chosen as Playboy's Playmate of the Month for the September 1967 issue and subsequently was the 1968 Playmate of the Year. Her centerfold was photographed by Carl Gunther. Vetri won $20,000 in prizes when she was selected Playmate of the Year. Among these were a new car (an all pink 1968 AMC AMX), gold watch, skis and a ski outfit, a complete wardrobe, a movie camera, a typewriter, a tape recorder, a stereo, and a guitar. A nude photo of her (along with fellow playmates Leslie Bianchini, Reagan Wilson and Cynthia Myers) was scanned and inserted into Apollo 12 Extra-vehicular activity astronaut cuff checklists by pranksters at NASA.
