50's Pinup girl and Model Bettie Page died yesterday at the age of 85 in Los Angeles. Growing up I was aware of her as an icon in fashion, film and fringe history, due to her unique look and undeniable presence. But I didn't truly know who she was until watching the fantastic film about the early part of her life "The Notorious Bettie Page ." The New York Times does the factual aspects of her life better justice than I ever could, and WOMEN Model Management's blog has a great post of model Mina Cvetkovic as "Betty Page" but wanted to mention this charismatic and enigmatic woman now that she's gone.
