Playboy September 1985

COVER STORY We don't have to tell you who is on our cover; Miss Ciccone is the pop star of the year, the woman of the year, the look of the year. So we'll stick to the facts: The photo is by Herb Ritts for Visages. You'll see a lot more of Madonna in a 14-page pictorial starting on page 118 and featuring nude studies by two leading New York photographers, Lee Friedlander and Martin H. Schreiber. Desperately seeking our Rabbit Head? We found it a soft spot. 5 PLAYBILL 11 THE WORLD OF PLAYBOY 13 DEAR PLAYBOY 19 PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS 39 SPORTS DAN JENKINS 43 MEN ASA BABER 45 WOMEN CYNTHIA HEIMEL 47 AGAINST THE WIND CRAIG VETTER 51 THE PLAYBOY ADVISOR 55 DEAR PLAYMATES 57 THE PLAYBOY FORUM 63 PLAYBOY INTERVIEW: JOHN HUSTON—candid conversation 74 I'M DICK FELDER!—fiction JERRY STAHL 78 RATING NIELSEN—personality BRUCE WILLIAMSON 84 COPS—article MARK BAKER 87 BACK TO CAMPUS—fashion HOLLIS WAYNE 92 THE MORAL SUPERIORITY OF (A) MEN (B) WOMEN—essay...
