Playboy Playmate Natalia Sokolova is a Russian ravisher whose life has had an incredible series of twists and turns. Natalia's a incredibly busty blonde bombshell whose blue-eyed beauty only hints at the woman underneath.
Natalia was born in Moscow on October 15, 1976, the latest in a long line of Russian academics. Her grandfather was a noted Soviet scholar and inventor, while both parents were well-respected scientists. Natalia followed in their footsteps, becoming a top student herself. In fact, she represented Russia abroad in a string of international student competitions. Natalia traveled the globe, visiting Japan and London, among other places.
Natalia's month-long stay in London allowed her to hone her English skills to the point that she ended up winning an English language contest sponsored by Moscow State University. She then entered the program to be an exchange student, and spent a semester at Maryland's Springbrook High School in 1993.
Natalia graduated from her Russian high school at the age of 16, and immediately enrolled at the University of Maryland. Her studies -- and life -- were almost cut tragically short on the night of her first Halloween at the University. Natalia was involved in a terrible car crash that left her in a wheelchair with a broken backbone, partial paralysis and several dysfunctional internal organs. The prognosis didn't look good.
Natalia returned to Russia, where two years of physical therapy helped her to learn how to walk again. She then returned to the University of Maryland, where she graduated with a degree in International Business and Finance with a 3.8 GPA.
While at the university, Natalia had started modeling on the side to help make ends meet. She ended up entering the Hawaiian Tropic International Pageant in Las Vegas, which led to an offer to appear in Playboy. She waited until graduating to accept the offer, but once she did, Natalia was an instant sensation.
Her leggy 5'11" frame beautifully filled out by some eye-popping 34D-22-34 curves, Natalia was always bound to make a splash. Her Playboy stint led to a recurring role on the TV show 'Baywatch,' as well as small parts in a handful of movies and TV spots. She was a member of the Forbidden Fruit team in USA Network's 'Cannonball Run 2001.'
Natalia continues to work regularly as an actress and model, her bombastically buxom figure wowing folks throughout the U.S. and Europe. She's a woman who's had her battles, but who has always come out looking great.
