About Melodye Prentiss
Her centerfold was photographed by Pompeo Posar. Prentiss died on March 3, 2009 after taking medications that made her unable to breathe following knee surgery and other illnesses.
She's the first Playmate who showed a slight glimpse of pubic hair on her centerfold, although it would not be until January 1971, when Liv Lindeland was the first Playmate to have clearly visible pubic hair in her pictorial.
Melodye was working in the Playboy editorial library when she was "discovered" by the magazine as Playmate material. She studied fine art and painting at both the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts and the University of Chicago.

in HER case,yes, this was the very first GLIMPSE of pubic hair on a playmate ever, but this is not really considered showing pubic hair. That occurred in January 1971 edition of the magazine. August 1969, 13 months later, had PAULA KELLY( a black woman) reveal her full pubic hair completely,but not as the centerfold, merely as part of a story where she was dancing). But plenty of pubic hair and even full frontal photos were taken regularly of nude models since photography was invented circa 1840. However, publication of such photos became accepted in the 1960s( in the UK and elsewhere in Europe etc, and 1969 in USA with Penthouse moving stateside from UK) and in Playboy since January 1971 publication. They were retroactively released for tens of thousands of models in the 1970s, even if it had been decades since they originally took those photos.

OFFICIALLY THE FIRST EVER very slight glimpse of PUBIC HAIR in PLAYBOY HISTORY. JULY 1968. Penthouse was coming to USA in 1969,and they had already been showing pubes in 1968 in the UK. So competition was coming up, they decided to slowly start showing, in this case an appetizer for the centerfold. The real deal full pubic hair came in January 1971, a full 30 months aka 2.5 years later.Became PMOY 1972. and 3.5 years later full frontal vagina reveal for playmate January 1972, who became PMOY 1973,respectively.
