"Yes, there is life after Playboy," she told Metropolis Nights in December as their "Angel of the Month." "I have been a part of many great experiences: travel shows, magazine covers, and of course giving advice to young impressionable girls who think they need to act a certain way for a chance to be a model (classy not slutty)."

Hensley was originally from Ferron, Utah and moved to California at 18 to model while becoming an aesthetician, according to her biography on the Playboy website. She didn't get the opportunity to become a Playboy model until placing in the Top 20 in a Hawaiian Tropic contest.

"I'm happy to be a playmate," she said at the time. "It's a dream come true."

Foul play is not suspected in Hensley's death.
