Biography
Lisa Marie Scott was born on February 1, 1974, in Pensacola, Florida, the daughter of a Naval dentist from Chicago and a Japanese mother who met while her father was stationed in Okinawa. Born into a military family meant that Lisa moved around quite a bit as a child, living in such places as Guam, San Diego, Hawaii, Japan and Virginia. During her junior high school years the family moved to Orange County, California, where they settled. By her senior year in high school Lisa had blossomed into a beautiful young girl, and was voted Homecoming Queen and Most Talented Girl. She also had become quite an accomplished ballerina, and was accepted to ballet-training programs with The Boston Ballet, The Joffery Ballet, The San Francisco Ballet and The Chicago Ballet. After a brief stint at the University of California-Irvine, she joined a ballet company in the Pacific Northwest, appearing in productions of "The Nutcracker" (of course), "Coppelia", "Swan Lake", "Sleeping Beauty", "Romeo and Juliet", "Don Quixote", "Giselle", "Le Corsaire" and "Carmina Burana". Missing her family and Southern California, she left professional ballet behind when an offer to pose for Playboy magazine came along. It was her first experience posing nude, but the exhilaration of modeling without clothes convinced her to make a permanent career change. She was named Miss February 1995 by Playboy and traveled the world promoting the magazine. In addition, she began auditioning for television and film roles and landed guest appearances on shows like Friends (1994), Baywatch (1989), Married... with Children (1987), High Tide (1994) and MTV's House of Style (1989). Deciding that she wanted to return to college, Lisa Marie applied for and was accepted to several Ivy League universities, but chose to attend UCLA due to its proximity to home. Majoring in history, she graduated in March 2000 summa cum laude in the honors program. Transfering to law school shortly thereafter, she found her main interests to be intellectual properly and feminist law. Overburdened by the workload and coming to believe she'd never be happy as a lawyer, she quit law school and returned to modeling full-time, setting up her own website (www.lisamariescott.com) in the process. She's continued to pose for magazine pictorials (in FHM and Vanity Fair, among others) and makes appearances at conventions all over the country. Her main desire now is to continue modeling, marry, and one day have a family.
