She also has a hand in the success of their family business, according to sources.<\/p>\n Claudia Heffner Peltz\u2019s current age is listed as 69; this is calculated by her date of birth, which reads the 12th of March 1955. Though she was born and raised in the US, Claudia\u2019s exact place of birth is not known, though several sources have speculated that it is Baltimore. She is a Caucasian American.<\/p>\n Growing up in Baltimore, Peltz achieved her academic qualifications there. Though the name of the educational institution she favored is not known, Claudia once said she is the product of a Catholic school. It is not known whether she proceeded to the university after completing high school.<\/p>\n Claudia\u2019s parents have been identified as William J. Heffner (father) and Barbara Heffner (mother). It is common knowledge that William was an alum of John Hopkins University. After acquiring his first degree, he proceeded to the University of Maryland to study for a law degree.<\/p>\n At a point in his life, William served in the United States Army. The patriarch of the Heffner family was an active soldier during the Korean war but later retired from the Army. After he left the US Army, Claudia Heffner Peltz\u2019s dad delved into the banking industry, but the details of his foray into the sector are not available.<\/p>\n The old soldier also went into business later in life. However, the type of merchandise he dealt with isn\u2019t known. Sadly, William has passed on. Claudia\u2019s dad died sometime in 2009, though his family didn\u2019t announce the cause of death.<\/p>\n While there is well-detailed info about William J. Heffner, nothing has been said about his wife. However, she is believed to be alive and kicking.<\/p>\n Far from being the only child born to William and Barbara, Claudia built childhood memories with two siblings, Charlene Heffner and Holly McCloskey. Holly has never been in the public eye, but several reports are claiming that she is married and has her own family.<\/p>\n Charlene Heffner, on the other hand, has made the news severely. During the later part of the 1980s, Charlene left home for Hawaii, where she met billionaire Doris Duke \u2013 Doris is listed as a tobacco heiress, philanthropist, socialite, art collector, and horticulturist who was known for throwing lawn birthday parties for all her llamas complete with funny hats and cake.<\/p>\n It happened that the eccentric billionaire saw Charlene as a reincarnation of her dead child and proceeded to adopt her, giving her a new name, Chandi Duke Heffne. Before long, Chandi took charge of her adoptive mother\u2019s life and received an expensive gift of a million bucks worth of horse farm from the billionaire.<\/p>\n After Doris\u2019 demise in the latter part of the 1990s, Chandi locked heads in a legal battle over her estate with the billionaire\u2019s former butler and emerged triumphant. This led her to inherit over $65 million.<\/p>\n Contrary to what many believe, there are no blood ties between Claudia and late Playboy magazine founder and editor Hugh Marston Hefner. The controversial American magazine publisher was born to an accountant, Glenn Lucius Hefner, and classroom teacher, Grace Caroline (Swanson) Hefner, in Chicago, Illinois.<\/p>\n Hugh\u2019s family originated from Nebraska \u2013 while his mum was of Swedish roots, his dad had English and German ancestry. Hugh had just one sibling \u2013 a brother called Keith.<\/p>\n From the above explanation, it is clear that Claudia and the late Playboy boss had no known family connections. They happen to have the same last names.<\/p>\nSummary of Claudia Heffner Peltz\u2019s Biography<\/strong><\/h3>\n
