as a child to a supermodel on top of the world today. The Los
Angeles born nymph has been a breakthru model for the African
American community. Tyra was the first black female to appear

Tyra was made fun of by her schoolmates and as she says in a recent
interview "They knew I was sensitive and they'd tease me
all the time. I'd go home crying to my mom. But I got the last
laugh. Now I say, 'Is that really me?' " The issue of being
'really me' also is being brought into question with Tyra. Several

Elle
MacPherson
Referred to tellingly as "The Body" in her native Australia,
Elle Macpherson's formidable six-foot frame has graced enough
covers of Sports Illustrated to make the auburn-haired model-turned-actress
synonymous with the words "Swimsuit Issue." Despite
a youthful passion for ballet, Macpherson claims she was a classic
tree-climbing tomboy as a young girl growing up Down Under. The
eldest of four children of a well-off Sydney family, she witnessed
her parents divorce at fourteen (born Eleanor Gow, Elle adopted
the surname of Macpherson when her mother remarried soon after).
Macpherson enrolled in Sydney University's pre-law program (no
doubt on the encouragement of her barrister stepfather), but her
future in law was cut short after a single year of study when
she discovered she had a ready talent for promoting an athletic-yet-voluptuous
new standard for print models more
