About Victoria Lynn Johnson

When Penthouse Magazine came calling, Victoria decided maybe her life needed a little shaking up. Victoria liked to break the mold. A short time later, her centerfold photo shoot was done by Vogue photographer Stan Malinowski. Her first cover, Pet of the Year Award and issue, and 6 more U.S. Covers, as well as 7 covers of other magazines that Penthouse owned and distributed worldwide. Totaling 15 covers! The newsstand loved Victoria as much as her Penthouse family did. Victoria was approached and asked to autograph her headshots at department stores, naval bases, nightclubs, Grand Central Station, Veteran’s hospitals, Grand Prix events, airport kiosks, world team tennis courts, electronics conventions, hockey rinks and photography trade shows. In Japan, she was adored by fans. That red hair. Victoria also dignified the cover of the NY Post with famed Television Producer, Norman Lear, who outbid everyone to gift a millionaire friend the top charity prize of dinner with Victoria.

Arguably Victoria’s most famous film role was in Brian De Palma’s, Dressed to Kill. Victoria’s participation would have remained unknown had not lead actress Angie Dickinson proclaimed on The Tonight Show that she “had no body double.” In response to Ms. Dickinson’s claim, People Magazine featured the true story on their cover identifying Victoria as the actual owner of that undressed to thrill body. The controversy resulted in a Trivial Pursuit, Baby Boomers edition including a question as part of the game, wherein Victoria’s true role, as the body double in Dressed to Kill was referenced.
