Lena Söderberg (born March 31, 1951 in Sweden; the actual Swedish spelling of this name is Lena Söderberg, but she is better known without the diacritics) appeared as a Playmate in the November 1972 issue of Playboy magazine,[1] under the name Lenna Sjööblom. Her centerfold was photographed by Dwight Hooker.
Her photo (known as Lenna) is often used in the field of digital image processing.[2] She was a guest at the 50th annual Conference of the Society for Imaging Science and Technology[3] in 1997 where she was busy signing autographs, posing for pictures, and giving a presentation about herself.
