THE 12 MOST BEAUTIFUL

I am writing a book based upon the reminiscences and memories of fashion models who posed from 1937 until 1950. I would like to hear from Meg Mundy and others from the “Twelve Most Beautiful Women,” shot in 1947 by Irving Penn.

I would like to hear from any models who, like my mother, Elizabeth Gibbons-Hanson, posed for such artists and photographers as Man Ray, George Platt Lynnes, Jean Cocteau, Louise Dahl-Wolfe and John Engsteadt.

I would also like to hear from anyone who knew George White, head of the narcotics agency until his retirement in the ‘60s.
