Model and educator Debbie Colette

Debbie Colette is a model from the seventies who was a popular presence in Mademoiselle magazine. 

  

She appeared on a few covers of the magazine, and she even did photos for a few print ads, like the one below.

By 1976, though, she was already moving on.  She continued to model part time but had become bilingual schoolteacher in the New York City public school system, teaching gifted Hispanic kindergartners and first graders.  😊

 

So you still think models are dumb? 😛
