Eighties model Laura Valentine

Laura Valentine is a model from the late 1980s who appeared in ads for the Gap clothing store chain. This picture, from 1988, is from one of those ads.


The Washington State native was represented by the Elite agency in New York, and she appeared on the covers of magazines such as Glamour and Harper's Bazaar. She has a twin sister named Lisa, who, as far as I know, is not a model.

Hard to find. She married the heir to an advertising fortune (Amiratti), and disapeared from modeling until she resumed in her 50s.
I knew her in high school. Lisa was the one who wanted to be a model. She talked Laura into going to the agency with her.
