September 6, 1952 - January 4, 2011 / Virgo / Age 58
Anneka Di Lorenzo was an American-born Penthouse model, adult model, and actress. She was born Marjorie Lee Thoreson on September 6, 1952 in St. Paul, Minnesota, United States.
Throughout her modeling career, she has also appeared as Anneka De Lorenzo, Anneka Vasta or Messalina.
Anneka Di Lorenzo was crowned Penthouse Pet of the Month in September 1973 before rising to the coveted title of Pet of the Year 1975, stepping into the spotlight at just 20 years old. Her measurements are 36-22-35. Anneka Di Lorenzo has charming brown eyes, fiery red hair, and natural breasts.
Some women seem made for the page. Anneka Di Lorenzo always felt destined for something larger, more volatile, and far less containable. She arrived in Penthouse with a presence that was impossible to mistake - darkly glamorous, intensely self-aware, and charged with the kind of theatrical energy that makes ordinary beauty seem almost beside the point. She did not simply decorate the magazine's most daring years. She helped define their temperature.
What made Anneka so arresting was the sense that she carried drama naturally. There was nothing casual about her effect. She projected a bold sensuality, yes, but also intelligence, ambition, and a certain emotional risk that gave her glamour unusual depth. She seemed less like a model drifting through a pictorial than a woman stepping into a role only she could play. That quality made her ideal for a Penthouse era increasingly drawn to cinematic scale, visual spectacle, and women whose allure came with a pulse of danger beneath it.
Anneka Di Lorenzo's rise through Penthouse felt inseparable from the magazine's own changing ambitions. She emerged at a moment when the publication was reaching beyond glossy provocation toward something more operatic, and she had exactly the right presence for that shift. Her later ascent to Pet of the Year confirmed what readers already sensed: here was a woman with more than photogenic appeal. She had force. That same magnetism carried her into film, where her screen work - especially in productions tied to the excesses and controversy of the 1970s - deepened her association with Penthouse's boldest chapter. On screen as on the page, Anneka brought a kind of heightened glamour that felt inseparable from spectacle itself.
But hers was never a simple fairy tale of beauty and success. The years that followed exposed the harder truths behind that world - the fragility of fame, the strain of power, and the personal cost of living in a spotlight shaped by other people's appetites as much as one's own ambition. That complexity now feels central to her story. Anneka remains unforgettable not only because she embodied Penthouse at its most audacious, but because she also reflected the tensions beneath its glitter.
Anneka Di Lorenzo endures as one of the defining women of the magazine's most cinematic era: alluring, ambitious, controversial, and impossible to reduce to a single image. That is why she still fascinates. She was never merely a fantasy. She was the complication inside it.
