Amanda (Missy) Hodges Cleveland (December 25, 1959 – August 14, 2001) was an American model and actress. She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for the April 1979 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Mario Casilli.
Cleveland was born in Jackson, Mississippi. She attended Provine High School and McClure Academy. She was discovered by Playboy through the magazine's 25th Anniversary Great Playmate Hunt, a contest she entered after being prodded by her mother. She appeared in the films Cheech and Chong's Next Movie, Let's Do It! and True Confessions. At the time of her death, she was a property manager.
Her cause of death is listed as an "adverse reaction to prescription medicine", that she had died at home, and was buried in Mississippi (Yazoo or Jackson), where she'd moved back to after living in LA, Canada, and Florida.
Something doesn't seem right about the details of Missy's death, something isn't being told. She was survived by her parents, sisters and brothers, but no children and apparently no current husband, although she had once been married. People who have adverse reactions to medicine generally get to the hospital or are on the way before they expire. But it said she died at home. My guess, and it's only a guess, not to hurt her family or loved ones, is that "adverse reaction to prescription medicine" is very nice covering language for accidental overdose.
