Althea Currier (born 1942) was a popular American nude model and erotic B-movie actress of the 1960s.
Life and career
Currier was supposedly born in England but raised in Woodland, Maine. She moved to Southern California and worked as a dance instructor for almost two years at a studio on the Sunset Strip with a partner named Jack Simmons. Currier and Simmons were featured in the 1962 Volume 6, No. 6 issue of Adam magazine in a photo layout of a "twist party". Althea supposedly worked as chorus girl in San Francisco for a while.
Althea was then supposedly "discovered" by Chuck Landis, who was the owner of the Largo Strip Club in L.A. This led to Althea becoming involved in glamour/nude modeling; she appeared in many magazines of the era, including Mosaic, Modern Man, Adam, Scamp, All Man, etc. She is also featured in Adam magazine's 1964 full-color calendar. Althea wrote an advice column in Adam magazine from 1964 to 1967, and appeared in occasional layouts in the magazine.
Althea also appeared in films directed by Peter Perry and Russ Meyer.
