Jan Roberts

The Playboy Club in Chicago was only two years old when Jan Roberts, an all-natural blonde who was born in Brooklyn and raised in Toledo, came in looking for a job. “I attended high school in Toledo and Elkhart University in Indiana. My ambition is to do everything to the best of my ability,” said the sweet beauty during her interview. “I really want to be a Bunny at the Playboy Club in Chicago.” Offered a job as on the spot, the brown-eyed, bushy-tailed and voluptuous Bunny quickly became a favorite among Club keyholders. So, it came as no surprise to her loyal regulars when it was announced that Playboy named her Miss August 1962—the first model to ever hop from Bunny to Playmate. “I'm interested in a show business career,” says our busty Playmate of the Month. “As a Bunny and now a Playmate, I'm already leading a show biz kind of life. It's a big step on the way up.” With her career blossoming and a fan mail coming in from around the world, Jan is the belle of the ball with her pick of any man she likes. “I like men with good manners, men who are good and kind to everyone, a sense of humor. I strongly dislike wise guys, beatniks and men who live in sloppy houses,” she explains. “In my down time, I like to sketch and paint, write, play bridge and chess and read a lot. My books are on math and all of the sciences.” Smart and sexy, Jan Roberts is on her way to the top.
