Debra Jo was living in Texas when Playboy discovered her. Readers (and photographers) were fascinated with her extra-long hair; Richard Fegley described her as "her own location." One of the first Playmates to participate in the Glamourcon pin-up conventions, Debra Jo recently returned to her conservative religious roots and became a born-again Christian and has stopped working as a casting director and doing promotions for Playboy. She married a puppeteer and does temporary secretarial work.
