Karen Elaine Morton (born October 3 1958 in Palmdale, California) was "Playboy's" Miss July 1978. She holds the distinction of having the smallest breast size – 32B – of any "Playboy" Playmate and possibly the smallest BMI (15.3).

Later on, Karen had a small part in the Mel Brooks film "History of the World, Part I" (1981), where she played a Vestal virgin.

Karen dated network executive Michael Lesner while a Playmate, then was married to Keith Forsey, Oscar winning music composer of "Flashdance" and "Beverly Hills Cop", but has since separated. The Forseys have a daughter, Natalia and Karen lives in Sherman Oaks, California

Today, Karen makes appearances at autograph shows all over the country. In 2004 she was stricken with an illness called Stevens Johnson syndrome , which left her practically blind. "Playboy" founder Hugh Hefner has helped her find treatment for her vision.

Karen's cousin, Elaine Morton was also a playmate, appearing in the June 1970 issue of "Playboy".
