Many other ladies -- "a great many others," Hef admits -- filled Playboy
Mansion West with love and laughter in the latter half of the Seventies.
As far as the public knew, Hef's main squeeze after Barbi was a former
Sunday school teacher from San Bernardino, Sondra Theodore, whom
Hef nicknamed Baby Blue. But Sondra had arrived at Mansion West,
piloting her Volkswagen Beetle convertible, to find an already
well-populated Grotto.
At first, she says, "I was treated pretty badly by a lot of the girls
who are now my very, very close girlfriends. They saw me as a threat,
but I learned to deal with it, and eventually they saw that I wasn't
this conniving little chick who was trying to steal Hef. I said to the
girls, 'Well, if we love him, we will try to make him happy, and he
likes harmony.' So we worked it out, but that was the most difficult
task to conquer about being Hef's girlfriend."
