Since 2004 Olivia has been a monthly contributor to Playboymagazine, where her art pinup page appears with captions written by Hugh Hefner.Born in Long Beach, California,her childhood years were spent primarily on the East Coast.She attended the New York School of Visual Arts,from 1967 to 1970, and resided in Soho, N.Y.C., from 1970 to 1974, creating Minimalistpaintings.

She also presented as one of 18 new artists in the \"Tenth Anniversary, the Larry Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art 1964-74\" with established artists includingEva Hesse, Agnes Martin,and Frank Stella.By 1975. financial pressures forced De Berardinis to seek out commercial art work. She returned to the skills she had gained as a child, painting women. She did work for periodicals and paperback publishers, advertisements, and movie posters. Olivia quickly secured regular work, starting in 1974, painting erotic fantasies for men\'s magazines.\"Necessity shaped my career, I thought illustrating for sex magazines might be a fun temporary job until my \'real\' career started. In the back of my mind I believed I would go back to the fine arts. It wasn\'t clear to me then, but this work became my art.\" In 1977, she and partner Joel Beren started the O Card Company to publish De Berardinis\' work as greeting cards. In 1979, she married Beren in New York City. They created another company, Ozone Productions, Ltd., to sell and license De Berardinis\' artwork.
