She\u2019s the daughter of Count Asti von Fielitz and Countess Margareta von Fielitz. Eva\u2019s mother brought her from Sweden to New York City in 1950, at age 12.<\/p>\n<p>By age 16, she was winning beauty queen contests. Soon, under the stage name Eva Lynd, she was appearing in popular TV shows produced in New York, such as the Steve Allen Show, Garry Moore Show, Perry Como Show and Jonathan Winters Show.<\/p>\n<p>After moving to Hollywood in 1959, she appeared in various TV shows, including the \u201cThin Man,\u201d \u201cPeter Gunn,\u201d \u201cThe Texan,\u201d \u201cHogan\u2019s Heroes,\u201d \u201cDesilu Playhouse,\u201d \u201cBourbon Street Beat,\u201d and \u201cCagney &amp; Lacey.\u201d She also had roles in several movies, including the 1960 cult horror movie \u201cThe Hypnotic Eye\u201d and the 1975 caper film, \u201cThat Lady From Peking,\u201d in which she co-starred with Carl Betz, Nancy Kwan and Bobby Rydell.<\/p>\n<p>One of Eva\u2019s most-seen roles was as the sexy woman who emerges from the tube in Brylcreem\u2019s 1964 \u201cGirl In the Tube\u201d TV commercial (<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/gC4y5ubsWSI\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/gC4y5ubsWSI<\/a>), which Entertainment Magazine named of the \u201c50 Best Commercials of All Time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the \u201850s and \u201860s, Eva was a popular model for pinup magazine photos taken by many top glamour photographers. She was also a go-to model for several top illustration artists who did cover paintings for paperbacks and cover and interior artwork for men\u2019s adventure magazines.<\/p>\n<p>In some MAM cover paintings and interior illustrations, Eva is a damsel-in-distress being tormented by Nazis, Commies or motorcycle gang members. In others, she is an alluring femme fatale or a gun-toting heroine.<\/p>\n<p>Eva is now 82 and living in Hollywood with her husband of over 40 years, veteran actor Warren Munson. Eva and Warren both still act occasionally and sometimes work together, as they did in a recent Campbell\u2019s Soup commercial in which they played grandparents.<\/p>\n<p>Eva: Men\u2019s Adventure Supermodel is available on Amazon in the US (<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2kCCD40\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/2kCCD40<\/a>) and worldwide, Barnes &amp; Noble and other online booksellers, including The Book Depository site, which offers free shipping worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>For more information or to arrange an interview with Eva Lynd, contact the co-editor of the book, Robert Deis (305-304-6494 email: cujokey@gmail.com or Waltona Manion 818-404-7271 waltona@waltonamanion.com.<\/p>\n<p>Information can also be found online at: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newtexture.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.newtexture.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>*PHOTO link for media: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.Send2Press.com\/300dpi\/19-1121s2p-book-Eva-Lynd-model-300dpi.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.Send2Press.com\/300dpi\/19-1121s2p-book-Eva-Lynd-model-300dpi.jpg<\/a><br \/>\n*Photo caption (L-R): Book jacket, \u201cEva: Men&#8217;s Adventure Supermodel\u201d and Eva Lynd today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Nov. 25, 2019 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; The latest installment in the acclaimed Men&#8217;s Adventure Library series from editors Robert Deis and Wyatt Doyle, &#8220;Eva: Men&#8217;s Adventure Supermodel&#8221; (ISBN 978-1943444397) has been released.
