Lynn was a successful actress, model, and beauty queen before her disappearance on July 6, 1983. She was 18 years old.
Lynn rose to fame in the beauty pageant world, winning over 280 crowns from nearly 300 contests. She quickly transitioned into a modeling career that had her posing for CoverGirl Magazine in October 1978
The model appeared in various films, but her most famous role was her participation in Scarface in 1983.
After the shooting of the movie Spring Break had finished, the model went unaccompanied to a party one weekend and returned “a different person,” according to Wing Flannagan, one of her closest friends.
Months before her vanishing, Tammy reportedly started showing signs of mental distress, including a fear of being attacked. She was evaluated at a medical center and cleared of illegal substance use, but her behavior persisted.
The model was last seen in Cocoa Beach, Florida. Her mother struggled for years trying to find a culprit, with people such as serial criminal Christopher Wilder and kidnapper John Crutchley being considered suspects.
Harold Lewis, a Cocoa Beach Detective, said in 1985 that he received two telephone calls from an anonymous woman claiming that Tammy was alive and pursuing a career as a nurse.
