Biography.
Dougan was born in Brooklyn. Her mother was a librarian and her father was an insurance salesman. Her father left the family when Dougan was 6 months old.
Dougan began modelling at age eleven. She had a successful career in modeling before gaining her first movie role in "Back from Eternity" as an uncredited showgirl. She gained small parts in another nine movies.
Dougan won multiple beauty pageants, including the Miss Coney Island pageant and the eighth annual New York Skate Queen contest. She began modeling as a teenager, changing her name to Vikki after the actress Vickie Lester and Dougan after her mother’s maiden name.
In 1956, publicity-man Milton Weiss had the idea of promoting Vikki using a backless dress to garner publicity. The idea was to gain a contrast with the fashion for models and actresses with large bosoms, such as Jayne Mansfield.
In 1953, photographer Ralph Crane photographed Dougan for "Life" magazine, and their October 26th edition featured Dougan on the cover.
In June 1957, Dougan appeared in the (Vol. 4, Issue 6) edition of "Playboy" magazine. Dougan featured again in the December 1962 issue, under the section "Playboy's Other Girlfriends".
In 1960, Dougan married Jim R. Sweeney, an ex-football player from Texas Christian University. The marriage was short lived. 
In 1961, her backless dresses and "callipygian cleft" were celebrated in the song "Vikki Dougan" by The Limeliters in their album "The Slightly Fabulous Limeliters".
In January 1964, "Cavalier" magazine featured twelve nude photographs of Vikki Dougan in a pictorial entitled "The Back is Back". Dougan brought a lawsuit against the magazine, stating that the magazine did not have permission to publish them. The photographs had been posed for "Playboy" but Dougan had subsequently declined to let "Playboy" publish the photographs.
Throughout the 1950s and 1960s, she dated a string of prominent Hollywood men, including Frank Sinatra and Glenn Ford.
