Born in San Diego, California, Salli Sachse was literally plucked off the beach of her hometown and put in front of a movie camera, appearing first in the back to back Bikini Beach (1964) and Muscle Beach Party (1964), and would continue to appear in the likes of Pajama Party (1964), Beach Blanket Bingo (1965), Ski Party (1965), How to Stuff a Wild Bikini (1965), Sergeant Dead Head (1965), Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine (1965), The Ghost in the Invisible Bikini (1966), Fireball 500 (1965) and Thunder Alley (1967). And when the American International scene shifted away from the beach, Sachse would also appear in the outlaw biker flick, The Devil's Angels (1967), some spy shenanigans in The Million Eyes of Sumuru (1967, and counter culture flicks, including a pivotal role as Peter Fonda's LSD muse in The Trip (1967) and Wild in the Streets (1968).
