An Evening with Christie Brinkley (virtual event)
May 12 @ 6:00 pm
Supermodel Christie Brinkley talks about her new memoir UPTOWN GIRL, which charts her meteoric career from 1974, when she was “discovered” outside a Paris phone booth, which set off a modeling career that would land her on the covers of hundreds of magazines and cement her legacy as an All-American icon. Although she’s lived more than fifty years in the public eye, she shares stories from her roller-coaster life.
In “Uptown Girl,” Christie Brinkley shares what life has been like, both in front of and behind the cameras, considering the girl she was alongside the woman she has become. Her stories are as heartening as they are eye-opening, as she recounts her most formative chapters, including the betrayal by her biological father as a child, her lifelong passion for art, her whirlwind career, her four tumultuous marriages—including her heartbreaking divorce from Billy Joel—and the harrowing experiences that almost cut her life short.
