Jolanta Von Zmuda Bio
April 14, 1956 / Aries / Age 69
Jolanta Von Zmuda is a Polish-born Penthouse model, adult model. She was born as Yolanta Duchi on April 14, 1956 in Gdansk, Poland.
Jolanta Von Zmuda was chosen as Penthouse Pet of the Month in March 1977. Jolanta was 20 years old when she was honored with the prestigious title of Penthouse Pet. Her measurements are 36-23-35. Jolanta Von Zmuda has seductive blue eyes, honey blond hair, and natural breasts.
Jolanta Von Zmuda’s place in Penthouse history is impossible to ignore—and impossible to simplify.She became one of the most talked-about women of the era, not for glamour alone, but for the controversy and consequences that followed.
Photographed by Bob Guccione in 1975, Jolanta’s images pushed boundaries even by Penthouse standards. Their explicit nature—particularly her unapologetically natural body—was considered too provocative at the time (exposed labia), delaying publication for nearly two years. When the pictorial finally appeared in 1977, it challenged prevailing ideas of erotic beauty and censorship, igniting both fascination and outrage.
But Jolanta’s story didn’t end on the page. In 1978, she filed a $4 million lawsuit against Guccione, alleging coercion and abuse surrounding the photo session. The case cast a long shadow over the magazine’s most transgressive period and became part of a broader reckoning about power, consent, and exploitation in the adult publishing world of the 1970s.
For Penthouse magazine, Jolanta Von Zmuda represents more than a Pet title. She is a symbol of an era when erotic publishing collided with unchecked authority—and when the cost of provocation was often borne by the women in front of the camera.
Her legacy is complicated, uncomfortable, and essential. Jolanta wasn’t just photographed—she was caught at the fault line between desire and dominance, exposure and consequence. And that makes her one of the most consequential figures ever to appear in Penthouse’s pages.
