Summary
- Myers was Miss December in 1968 before starring in 'Beyond the Dolls'.
- She left Hollywood due to pressure for nude scenes.
- Myers passed away in November 2011 at age 61.
Cynthia Myers, who graced the pages of Playboy as Miss December in 1968, successfully transitioned to the silver screen during the early 1970s. Her role as rock guitarist Casey Anderson in the satirical film 'Beyond the Dolls' (1970) solidified her status as a cult cinema favorite.
Despite achieving notable fame, including an appearance in the Sam Elliott western 'Molly and Lawless John' (1972), Myers made the decision to leave Hollywood. This departure stemmed from mounting pressures to perform nude scenes on camera. Following her acting career, she pursued opportunities in print modeling.
Cynthia Myers was reportedly married to an Air Force pilot. Tragically, her husband passed away in September 2011. Cynthia Myers herself died just two months later, in November 2011, at the age of 61.
