Femme Fatale: Diane Webber



Diane Webber    One of the true beauties of the classic glamour scene is, without a doubt, Diane Webber. Discovered by the man who discovered the young Marilyn Monroe, Webber went on to be photographed by some of the legends of the genre like Russ Meyer, Bunny Yeager, and Peter Gowland. With Meyer, as with many other classic models, her career blossomed. She appeared twice in Playboy (May 1955 and Feb. 1956) under Marguerite Empey, a variation of her real name Diane Marguerite. She also appeared in one of Meyer's hard-to-find short nudie-cutie features called This Is My Body. Also, she was used quite often in how-to glamour photography books, such as the ones made famous by Gowland. One of the most fascinating aspects about Webber, though, is her devotion to the naturalist lifestyle. Whereas nudism was an open joke for most of society in the 50's, Webber took the lifestyle seriously, and defended it many time. She, in fact published her own book about her and her family and their nudist lifestyle called "Those Wonderful Webbers." Webber is one those few pin-ups who one can recognize without a second look, and arguably the most graceful of all glamour models.
