The Girl in This Photograph
Every once in a while I come across a photograph that somehow survived all the years, the moves, and everything life carried with it.
So much of my modeling work from the early days disappeared over time. Portfolios get lost, agencies keep things, life moves on. But somehow this one stayed with me.
When I look at it now, I see more than just a modeling job. I see a younger version of myself standing right at the edge of everything that was about to happen.
I’m experimenting with using this image as a possible cover for my memoir, I Escaped Hollywood… Barely.
I’m not sure yet if it will be the final cover, but there’s something poetic about using a photograph from that time to introduce the story of what really happened behind the scenes.
Sometimes a single photograph carries an entire chapter of a life.
And sometimes… decades later… it finally gets to tell the story.
And the girl in that photograph had no idea yet how much she would have to survive.
