Biography |
Colleen Shannon was born in the U.S. state of Alaska, on
April 14 1978, and was Playboy's Playmate of the Month in
January, 2004 and also was the magazine's 50th anniversary
Playmate.
She has toured the world as an accomplished DJ, usually
playing hip hop or house music.
She appeared on the ITV show Love Island and was evicted on
20 August 2006
A legal battle has erupted over Playboy Magazine's use of a
portrait of Shannon taken by Mother Lode Photography for
Independence High School's yearbook when she attended the El
Dorado County school.
The photograph was used in Playboy's 2003 50th Anniversary
issue, accompanying a brief bio of Shannon in which she did
not mention El Dorado County or the high school.
Mother Lode Photography's co-owner Carla Calkins filed a
federal lawsuit against the magazine in November 2006
following a $200 settlement offer from Playboy, citing a
compensation precedent of $750 when Mother Lode's work has
been published in the past.
The photograph itself was never published by Independence
High, but Calkins seeks to defend her copyright. The matter
is set for settlement conference in March 2007. |
