Blessed Life and Great Beauty, Open Heart and Mind

I was lucky to have an opportunity to read Harpers and Queen Magazines in the 70s, not commonly found in Pennsylvania. I was always amazed with the work of Marie Helvin, her image was eternal. She was a very young woman but she portrayed maturity and a style that is wrought from wisdom. Her beauty a mark of its own, her figure almost unreal. I think she is one of the most beautiful women ever. To read her autobiography you discover her beauty within and her humanity. I am grateful that she has shared her life with us. I think she is an inspiration,. She challenged herself with her career and did not settle in her personal life. You witness a journey, albeit not yet complete. A woman alone but content with herself and willing to face issues and grow. Her roster of social connections in the art, music and publishing world is also impressive. She nurtured her friends and was the center of a social network in London. A lover of animals and an activist of causes, it is a true exposé of one, great model's lifestyle of our time.
