September 27, 1954 / Libra / Age 71
Corinne Alphen is an American-born Penthouse model, nude model, and actress. She was born Corinne Marie Alphen on September 27, 1954 in Lynn, Massachusetts, United States.
Throughout her modeling career, she has also appeared as Corrine Alphen or Corrine Wahl.
Corinne Alphen was crowned Penthouse Pet of the Month in June 1978, stepping into the spotlight at 23 years old. Her measurements are 37-23-36. Corinne Alphen has charming brown eyes, rich brown hair, and natural breasts.
Corinne Alphen entered Penthouse with the kind of bright, self-possessed glamour that feels instantly American yet never ordinary. There was warmth in her beauty, but also spark — the unmistakable suggestion of a woman with energy to spare and no intention of fading into the background. She did not project cool distance or studied mystery. Instead, she came across as vivid, approachable, and entirely alive to the attention around her. That made her June 1978 debut feel less like a passing introduction and more like the beginning of a longer affair with the magazine and its readers.
What made Corinne especially memorable was the force of personality behind the image. She had beauty, certainly, but it was animated by confidence, wit, and an actress's instinct for how to hold a scene. The oldest of five children, she brought with her a sense of groundedness that made her glamour feel sturdier than fantasy alone. Raised in Massachusetts, the daughter of a deputy chief of police and a mother who worked as a secretary at the Commonwealth's Registry of Motor Vehicles, she was not shaped by some distant world of inherited polish. She built herself through ambition, curiosity, and performance, even serving as president of the drama club while attending Ste. Chrétienne Academy in Salem before heading west at seventeen to Los Angeles and studying acting at Santa Monica City College.
That drive helped turn a Penthouse debut into something much larger. Corinne Alphen first gained major public recognition as Penthouse Pet of the Month in June 1978, returned for a follow-up pictorial in August 1981, and then achieved the magazine's highest distinction when she was named Pet of the Year in 1982, appearing on the cover and in a new pictorial in the November issue. From there, her career widened into film, television, stage work, commercials, and print advertising. She brought radiant comic energy to Spring Break, played the feisty Karen in Equalizer 2000, and appeared on television in shows including The A-Team, Night Court, The New Mike Hammer, Booker, and Mancuso, FBI. Beyond screen work, she also took on stage roles, including Flora in a New York production of Tennessee Williams' Baby Doll.
That fuller life is part of what gives Corinne her lasting appeal. She married actor Ken Wahl, had a son, Raymond, before their divorce in 1991, and later moved into a very different realm as a certified professional Tarot card reader. The arc feels fitting. Corinne Alphen was never simply a beautiful woman fixed to one moment or medium. She was too lively, too adaptable, and too distinctly herself for that. In Penthouse, she became a classic. Beyond it, she remained a woman in motion.
