Melinda Windsor (born June 25, 1944) was the pseudonym used by Ann Brockway, a 21-year-old student at the University of California, Los Angeles who was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its February 1966 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Tony Marco.{{cite web|url=http://wekinglypigs.com/cgi-bin/nand/search/pmstat?browse=%3A%3ACONFIG%3A%3Amodelbrowse&key=windsor%2C+melinda&limit=0|title=Playmate data|access-date=February 20, 2018}} She received her bachelor's degree in 1966.{{cite journal|periodical=Playboy|publisher=HMH Publishing Co.

Windsor was born in Akron, Ohio. She was working as an insurance rater and taking night classes at UCLA. She was going to use the money she earned posing for Playboy to finish her degree and then attend graduate school; her goal was to get a PhD and become a teacher.{{cite journal|periodical=Playboy|publisher=HMH Publishing Co.

A small controversy arose after her appearance in Playboy. In a newspaper article, the university stated that they had no one by the name of "Melinda Windsor" enrolled. Readers of the magazine wrote to Playboy asking if they had their facts straight. Playboy responded that "Melinda" was a student at UCLA in the fall of 1965 when she posed, but was not enrolled during the winter of 1966 and that she had used a pseudonym.{{cite journal|periodical=Playboy|publisher=HMH Publishing Co.
