Dianne Chandler Playboy Playmate September 1966

Dianne Chandler is the Playboy Playmate September for 1966.

Dianne Chandler, a 19-year-old University of Illinois drama major who was pursuing a curricular career at the Champaign-Urbana campus, readily admitted she had “no desire to act,” Dianne was content with the vocational view from the wings and planned a post-collegiate career as a set designer. “Like most college drama majors,” she told us, “I was bitten by the acting bug in high school. In fact, during my senior year I made a pretty fair Laura in The Glass Menagerie. But by the time I entered my freshman year at Illinois, I was well aware of the fact that I’m basically too shy to ever really go far in acting. On the other hand, technical drama — the sets, costuming, sound effects, lighting and everything else that goes on behind the scenes — absolutely knocks me out.”
When she’s not hitting the books or handling the lights at a student workshop production, Miss September put in many an extracurricular hour behind the handle bars of her Yamaha 305 motorcycle. “I used to be secretly fascinated by cycles and people who had the courage to actually drive them,” says Dianne. “And since university regulations prohibit me from keeping up with my high school hobby of raising and breeding Siamese cats, I asked my folks for a two wheeler for graduation so I could try something new and daring.” On weekends, however, Dianne preferred to leave the driving to others who share her enthusiasm for off-campus pizza parties, the latest Paul Newman flick or a fraternity house discothèque party (“For listening I prefer Bach or Mozart, but when it comes to dance music I’m strictly another Beatle nut”).
