Stunningly gorgeous, shapely, and enticing brunette knockout Anneka Di Lorenzo was born Marjorie Lee Thoreson in September 6, 1952 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Anneka dropped out of high school and moved to Los Angeles, California after her parents divorced in 1967. Di Lorenzo worked as a receptionist, a cocktail waitress, and a topless dancer as well as studied acting and participated in several beauty contests prior to becoming the Penthouse Pet of the Month in the September, 1973 issue of "Penthouse." She subsequently graced the cover of the December, 1973 issue of "Viva." Anneka has secondary roles in the enjoyably trashy 70's drive-in exploitation pictures "The Centerfold Girls," "Mama's Dirty Girls," and "Act of Vengeance." Di Lorenzo was named the Penthouse Pet of the Year in the October, 1975 issue of "Penthouse" (she both graced the cover and did a nude pictorial for this particular issue). Anneka did a coast to coast promotional tour of the United States in which she visited war veteran hospitals in October, 1975 and embarked on an international USO tour for the US Department of Defense which lasted from December, 1975 to January, 1976. She portrayed the depraved Messalina in both the notorious "Caligula" and the cheesy Italian soft-core comedy cash-in "Messalina! Messalina!". Anneka moved to New York City in the early summer of 1977. Photos from her steamy lesbian love scene in "Caligula" with fellow "Penthouse" Pet Lori Wagner were published in the June, 1980 issue of "Penthouse." Di Lorenzo's final film appearance was a small part as a nurse in Brian De Palma's "Dressed to Kill." Anneka's career suffered as a direct result of the box office failure and harsh critical reception of "Caligula." In 1988 she sued "Penthouse" magazine publisher Bob Guccione on charges of sexual harassment. Anneka only won a measly $4.06 in damages after the trial was over and finished. Guccione struck back at her by reprinting the photos of Di Lorenzo and Wagner's lesbian love scene in the February, 1991 issue of "Penthouse." Di Lorenzo's dead body was discovered on the shore by joggers in Camp Pendleton, California on January 4, 2011; she was 58 years old. Show less «
