Born:

Busty, foxy and shapely brunette looker Laura Lyons was born on October 22, 1954 in Los Angeles, California. She has four younger brothers. Lyons worked as a Bunny at the Playboy Club in Chicago, Illinois and as a Jet Bunny on the "Playboy" DC-9 jet airliner. While working as a Bunny at the Playboy Club in Chicago, Laura led the other Bunnies on a brief strike; she requested that the Bunnies should get extra privileges, including the right to date customers and socialize at the clubs after hours. These requests were granted by "Playboy" editor/publisher Hugh Hefner. Lyons was the Playmate of the Month in the February, 1976 issue of "Playboy". Laura not only made a guest appearance on an episode of the TV series, Love, American Style (1969), but also has an uncredited bit part in The Godfather: Part II (1974) and a more sizable co-starring role as "Cynthia Madison" in the cruddy "Jaws" rip-off, Tintorera: Killer Shark (1977). Lyons eventually got married and had three children.
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.
