A Source of Inspiration for All Those ‘Dumb Blonds’

Suzanne Somers’ life story is an inspiration for all those girls who may have had a rough start in life but who have a dream and the determination to make it come true (“The Unsinkable Suzanne Somers,” by Gina Piccalo, Feb. 4). She is literally a modern-day Cinderella who started out lowly but transformed herself into a beautiful and talented princess. She has reinvented herself innumerable times, often overcoming tragedy, adversity and disappointment to do so. Nothing seems to faze her and keep her down for long. She is truly a remarkable woman. Not bad for a so-called dumb blond.

Somers’ marketing genius is a confirmation of the old adage that people buy from people they like. Her staying power is her ability to adapt to change and maintain a youthful, sexy appearance that is appealing to men and women alike. Though she has made a fortune on various products, her ability to share her challenges and confront them in a positive manner makes her all the more unique.
