Rosanne Katon (born February 5, 1954) is an American model, actress, comedian and activist. She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its September 1978 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Mario Casilli.
Katon was born in New York City to a Jamaica-born father. She had several acting credits before appearing in Playboy (including a Broadway role in Godspell, and lead billing in the 1976 Cirio Santiago classic Ebony, Ivory & Jade). She continued to act afterwards both on TV and in the movies, and at one point segued into the world of stand-up comedy, even appearing in Playboy's June 1991 pictorial "Funny Girls," which covered female comedians. In 1984 she married Richard Walden, who is the president and chief executive officer of Operation USA, an international organization that supplies relief to Third World areas in need such as Rwanda, Cambodia and, recently, tsunami-ravaged Sri Lanka. Rosanne is an active participant with Operation USA.
The Waldens have two children, including a 10-year-old son who is autistic and an expert cellist. The family is featured in the 2007 documentary Autism: The Musical.
