Biography by AllMovie

Playboy magazine's "Playmate of the Year" for 1970, actress/model Claudia Jennings was at first cast in decorative bits in mainstream films like 40 Carats (1971). It was in her athletic, self-reliant roles in such drive-in action fare as Gator Bait, Truck Stop Women and Unholy Rollers that Jennings truly came into her own. Generally clad in little more than a halter top and cutoff jeans, Jennings presented quite an imposing figure (in every sense of the word) as she battled various and sundry thugs of both sexes, armed with bazooka, bowie knife and bare fists. Claudia Jennings was elevated to true cult status after her untimely death in a head-on car collision in 1979.
