Sivi Aberg

Sivi Aberg
I remember seeing Sivi for the first time on Hogan's Heroes in the episode "LeBeau and the Little Old Lady". I could not blame LeBeau for keeping her all for himself. I would have done the same.


She was born on 7 May 44 in Sweden and graduated with a degree in cosmetology or dermatology (not clear which). She was crowned as Miss Sweden in 1964. While her resume does not give you the impression of how popular she can be, she was popular and quite well known. She was the 2nd Runner up in Miss Universe contest and made quite an impression on the judges.

The very next step was Hollywood and she was named "Hollywood Star of Tomorrow," winning over eight other debutante stars at the "Hollywood Stars of Tomorrow Awards" show on ABC. The program was hosted by Steve Allen and his wife, Jayne Meadows. She married Thor Esbjorn Aberg in San Francisco when she was 22 and he was 35. This marriage was to end in 1973 in a divorce. Her second marriage to Kenneth Archibald in 1977 is still going strong.
