Here are two more pictures of Karen Graham, who was my first celebrity crush back when I was fifteen or so. Estée Lauder herself would have been amused by that statement, since the models in the ads she commissioned were meant to sell cosmetics to upper-middle-class women, not excite teenage boys. The black-and-white picture is from 1977; the color photo is from 1984.


Victor Skrebneski never photographed Ms. Graham from a bad angle, because she doesn't have one. Everything about her - her eyes, her smile, her hair, as well as her uniquely shaped nose - is perfect feminine beauty personified. I wrote her a fan letter once, and she responded with a handwritten letter and an autographed picture, proving that her beauty isn't just on the outside.
