Linnea Quigley was born in Davenport, Iowa. After moving to Los Angeles in the mid 1970s, the petite, blond began getting work in B-movies, starting with small parts in such films as Psycho From Texas (1975) and Stone Cold Dead (1979). She really garnered attention in The Return of the Living Dead (1985), which has become a cult classic and helped make her the current "Queen of the Bs." Her reign was supreme in the late 1980s with such films as Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984), Savage Streets (1984) Night of the Demons (1988) and Nightmare Sisters (1988).

She currently resides in South Florida with her collection of pets (she is a devoted animal rights supporter). Along with films, she still appears at conventions around the world. Linnea is a musician, playing guitar and singing with her band The Skirts in the eighties. She has also written two books about her life in the movie industry, Bio & Chainsaw, in 1992 and I’m Screaming as Fast as I Can in 1995. After 35 years and more than 125 films, Linnea Quigley is still “America’s Scream Queen”. Maxim Magazine voted her in the top 10 Hottest Women in Horror Movies and named her one of the top Scream Queens of all time. She is always a fan favorite at Conventions with her vibrant personality, quick wit, and exuberant charm.
