Ex-Playmate to Speak on Safe Sex
Rebekka Armstrong, a former Playboy playmate turned safe-sex advocate, will speak at UNH at 9 p.m. November 23 in Dodds Theatre. Armstrong soared to stardom in 1986 as Miss September in the Playboy Magazine calendar. After three years in the spotlight, she was diagnosed with HIV. She concealed her disease, taking refuge in drugs and alcohol. After years of hiding the physical and emotional effects of the disease, Armstrong decided to go public. Since then, she has become an outspoken activist for AIDS awareness, fighting for progress in discovering improved medications and treatment.
