Playboy April 1990

COVER STORY Playmate Deborah Driggs, last month's centerfold attraction, has a basketball jones and wants the world to know. Our slam-dunking cover was designed by Junior Art Director Kristin Korjenek, styled by Lee Ann Perry and shot by Contributing Photographer Stephen Wayda. Thanks to Rhyner Designs in Chicago for Deborah's jersey, John Victor for hair styling and Pat Tomlinson for make-up. Just for the record, guys, the Rabbit ain't whistling Dixie. 3 PLAYBILL 9 DEAR PLAYBOY 15 PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS 37 SPORTS DAN JENKINS 40 MEN by ASA BABER 42 WOMEN by CYNTHIA HEIMEL 45 THE PLAYBOY ADVISOR 49 THE PLAYBOY FORUM 59 REPORTER'S NOTEBOOK: A FINE EYE FOR TYRANTS—opinion....
