TRACI BINGHAM Profile Page
Birth Date: January 13, 1971
Birth Place: Cambridge, Massachusetts
Traci Bingham (nTe Julie Anne Smith) was born January 13, 1971, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The youngest of 7 siblings, Traci has her diverse heritage of half Afro-American, part Cherokee and part Italian to thank for her exotic looks.
Traci was more interested in participating in sports, thanks to her older brothers, and she joined the swim team, track and cross country teams, and even took home first prize at a local fair for pole vaulting and hurdle jumping....But it was in 1996 that Traci hit the beaches of Baywatch, as lifeguard Jordan Tate. The first African American to don the staple red bathing suit, Traci fulfilled her lifeguard duties for two years.
Her Baywatch stint motivated her to get involved with Heal the Bay, as well as other environmental charities.
Just when things were getting red hot for Traci with her 1998 spread for Play.boy, she was taken out of the Baywatch script by the time her issue was released.
That didn't stop Traci from keeping busy though, as she added modeling to her resume and has appeared on a slew of magazine covers, and took on small television roles in Sin City Spectacular, The Jamie Foxx Show, Strip Mall, Malcolm & Eddie, The Parkers, as well as occupying a square on the game show, Hollywood Squares.
traci's a dream
Traci has also appeared in the documentary in both parts of Exposed: TV's Lifeguard Babes, as well as the 1999 film, Foolish and 2000's The Private Public. In 1999, Traci landed the role of Victoria Carrera in the film and short-lived television series The Dream Team, along with fellow beauties, Angie Everhart and Caprice Bourret, as agents disguised as supermodels (quite a stretch).
Traci became a one-man woman after her 1998 marriage to musician Robb Vallier, and with bridesmaids such as Carmen Electra, Angelica Bridges and Gena Lee Nolin, it was no doubt a ceremony that many a man would have wanted to attend.
