Dorothy Stratten, 28 February 1960 to 14 August 1980. Playboy's Playmate of the Month for August 1979, she met a horrific end that hath been extensively documented elsewhere. We pause here simply to commemorate a young woman who appeared, for a time, to hold the world within her grasp. She merits remembrance for the promise of her life, and not solely for the violence that brought it to an end.
