 Known as Marilyn Waltz, she was Playboy 's Playmate of the Month in the February 1954, April 1954 and April 1955 issues. She was the first of two women to become a three-time Playmate. However for the first of her Playboy appearances, Marilyn was billed as Margaret Scott. For many years thereafter, many assumed that Marilyn and Margaret actually were two different people. It wasn't until the mid 1990s that the two were revealed to be the same person.

He speculated in the book about this: "I only noticed the resemblance as the photos were being assembled for the book [Hefner had purchased both images from Baumgarth calendar company] and that Margaret Scott's name doesn't appear in lists of pinup models active in the period.
