A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Alias:
Lisa Nicole Baker
Birthplace:
Detroit, Texas, USA
Lisa Baker was born on March 15, 1944 in Detroit, Texas. Lisa's family moved from Texas to Broken Bow, Oklahoma when she was two years old. She has four brothers and three sisters. Baker worked as a soda jerk at a local drugstore while in high school. Following graduation from high school Lisa moved to Los Angeles, California and got a job working in the loan service department for a savings and loan association. She was discovered by a photographer as a bridesmaid at a friend's wedding in Los Angeles. Lisa was the Playmate of the Month in the November, 1966 issue of "Playboy." She was named Playmate of the Year in 1967. In the wake of her Playmate stint Baker was a spokes model for "Playboy," appeared on "The Jonathan Winters Show," and was a Budweiser girl on "The Tonight Show." Baker did a follow-up pictorial called "Playmates Forever!" in the December, 1979 issue of "Playboy" and even posed for another pictorial at age 53 for the June, 1997 issue of "Playboy."
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
