}} Dorothy Ruth Hoogstraten (February 28, 1960 – August 14, 1980), who took the stage name Dorothy Stratten, was a Canadian Playboy Playmate, model, and actress. Stratten was the ''Playboy'' Playmate of the Month for August 1979, Playmate of the Year in 1980〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Playmate data )〕 and was the second Playmate (after Lee Ann Michelle) born in the 1960s. Stratten appeared in three comedy films and in at least two episodes of shows broadcast on US network television. She was murdered at the age of 20 by her estranged husband/manager Paul Snider, who committed suicide on the same day. Her death inspired two motion pictures.〔 〕 ==Life and career== Stratten was born in a Salvation Army hospital in Vancouver, British Columbia, to Simon and Nelly Hoogstraten, who were Dutch immigrants.〔 〕 In 1961 her brother John Arthur was born. Her sister Louise Stratten followed in May 1968. In 1977 she was attending Centennial High School in Coquitlam when, while working part-time at a local Dairy Queen, she met 26-year-old Vancouver-area club promoter and pimp, Paul Snider, who romanced her. Snider later had a photographer take professional nude photos of her which were sent to ''Playboy'' magazine in the summer of 1978. She was under the age of 19 at the time, which is the legal age to pose nude in Canada so she had to persuade her mother to sign the model release form.〔 In August 1978 she moved to Los Angeles, where she was chosen as a finalist for the 25th Anniversary Great Playmate Hunt.〔 Snider joined her in October. With her surname shortened to Stratten, she later became ''Playboy's'' Miss August 1979, and began working as a bunny at the Playboy Club in Century City, Los Angeles.〔 Hugh Hefner had high hopes Stratten could have meaningful crossover success as an actress.〔 She guest-starred in episodes of the television series ''Buck Rogers'' and ''Fantasy Island'', along with a small role in the 1979 roller disco comedy ''Skatetown, U.S.A.'' In 1980 she became ''Playboy's'' Playmate of the Year, with photography by Mario Casilli. Stratten also played the title role in the sci-fi parody ''Galaxina'', her first and only starring role. Hefner reportedly encouraged Stratten to sever ties with Snider, calling him a "hustler and a pimp."〔 Rosanne Katon and other friends warned Stratten about Snider's behavior. Stratten began an affair with Peter Bogdanovich while he was directing ''They All Laughed'', her first major studio film.〔 Snider hired a private investigator to follow Stratten. They separated and Stratten moved in with Bogdanovich, planning to file for a divorce from Snider. By August 1980 Snider most likely believed that he had lost Stratten and what he had called his "rocket to the moon."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dorothy Stratten」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
