Karla Conway (born 5 July 1946 in Pasadena, California) was the name used by American model and artist Karla Jo Musacchia for her appearance as Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its April 1966 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Paul Morton Smith and R. Charleton Wilson.
At 4' 11", Karla shares the honor of being the shortest Playmate in Playboy history with Sue Williams (April 1965).
Karla was raised in Malibu and was an avid surfer. She married the poet Jon Woodjack and lived with Patrick and Susan Farrow in the hills overlooking Malibu. In 1965 she appeared as a dancer in a promo for the Hondells "Let Me Take You On A Sea Cruise".
On 25 January 1967, while living in London, Karla gave birth to a boy, naming him Aaron. She returned to California to work on a film, Fireball 500 (1967). Later that year, she moved to Aspen, Colorado where she worked as a Bunny at the Playboy Club there. She also worked at the clubs in Los Angeles, Jamaica, and Denver.
In 1968, she began travelling with the Renaissance Pleasure Faire. She did this for two years, eventually moving to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to help her father start a restaurant business. After that, she spent several years in Central America. Finally, in 1978, she settled down in Hawaii and made it her home.
She has started going by the name Sachi and become an artist. In 1999 she illustrated the book Turtle Songs, a Tale For Mothers and Daughters, by Margaret Olivia Wolfson.
