Roberta Pedon was the stage name of a big-bust American glamour model who appeared in men's magazines in the 1970s.

Modeling career

In 1973, Pedon relocated from San Francisco to Venice, California where she started her modeling career. Bob Ellison and John Kirk, both well-known glamour photographers in Los Angeles have been credited with discovering her. She was known by many pseudonyms (Roberta Pedon, Melody O'Hare, Roberta Baird and Roberta Weaver). "Roberta Pedon" was the name she had fully adopted by 1973. The "Melody O'Hare" moniker supposedly came from the name of one of her best friends in junior high. Pedon's nickname was "Mooschi".

Due to her extremely large breasts, Pedon's photographs frequently appeared in men's magazines that catered to breast fetishes. The earliest verifiable publication of her modeling photos was in a men's magazine called "The Swinger", in the February 1974 edition (which would have gone to press the prior November.) She dressed (and then undressed) as a hippie during most of her photo shoots.

Pedon’s appearance in the sexploitation film "Carnal Madness" aka "Delinquent Schoolgirls" resulted from her contacts at American Art Enterprises (AAE) a Los Angeles company that specialized in pornographic shoots and loops. AAE's modeling roster provided the producer of "Delinquent Schoolgirls" with busty female talent like Pedon and Nika Movenka to act in the film. After appearing in "Delinquent Schoolgirls", Roberta caught the acting bug and auditioned for the lead female role in the Jan-Michael Vincent film "Buster and Billie".

The accuracy of biographical information on Pedon after she left modeling is sketchy. The last credible reports of her alive are from the late 1970s.Fact|date=September 2008

Legacy

In Dian Hanson's book, "The History of Men's Magazines Vol.5", Roberta Pedon is listed as one of the top five American covergirls from 1968-1980.

"The Big Book of Breasts", by Dian Hanson, features several nude modeling photographs of Roberta Pedon.

Two books about Pedon are currently being written, one a traditional biography written by Charles L. Smith (due in 2009), the other a fictional narrative in which one of the main characters is heavily based on Pedon.

"Delinquent Schoolgirls" was released on DVD in February 2008.
