Early career
In the early 1970s, she was twice a finalist in the Annual Miss West Coast bikini beauty pageant, staged in Perth each January. She later appeared as a game show assistant on local TV.
After appearing in obscure low-budget sex-comedy film Plugg (1975), shot in Perth, Rixon came to Melbourne and acted in several television roles for Crawford Productions. She played three different roles during the final episodes of Homicide.
Starting in mid-1975 Rixon also began making appearances in Crawford Production's sex-comedy soap opera The Box. Playing television starlet Angela O'Malley, Rixon made several appearances in the series. Rixon left The Box towards the end of 1975, but returned for a three-month stint starting February 1976.
She subsequently found fame as Penthouse magazine's December 1977 Pet, and in 1979 She was selected as Penthouse's Pet of the Year during a televised pageant that took place at the Aladdin Hotel in Las Vegas. In July 1980, she initiated New York Mayor Ed Koch's "Festival of Fragrances." She was featured again in Penthouse with a ten-page spread in 1980 and also posed for Oui magazine in November 1982. During this period she appeared in films such as The Eyes of Laura Mars and Used Cars. She did not receive the Penthouse prizes promised, and in 1985 took the company to the New York State Supreme Court which ruled that she was entitled to them. The judgment was later affirmed on appeal.
