Karen Elaine Price (born July 17, 1960) is an American model, stunt woman and television producer. She is sometimes credited as Karen Castoldi. She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month in January 1981. Her centerfold was photographed by Ken Marcus. She is best known for being one of the largest breasted Playboy Playmates of the 1980s.
Career
Before becoming a Playmate Price was a personal gymnastics coach and a children's gymnastics teacher.
The Playboy issue with Karen Price as centerfold is famous for having one of the last interviews with John Lennon. The interview took place several months before he was murdered in December of 1980. It came out in Playboy about the time of his murder.
After she became a Playmate, Price started acting, but soon switched to performing stunts for over two dozen movies including Leonard Part 6 (1987), Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment (1985), and The Golden Child (1986). After a hiatus, she began a new career as an associate producer of television programs such as Amazing Vacation Homes (2004) and Amazing Babies (2005).
Price made a cameo appearance of sorts in the early Mel Gibson film The Road Warrior - her centerfold is pasted onto a tailfin of Gyro Captain's Benson gyrocopter.
