| Description |
With sparkling blue eyes, exquisite cheekbones and a sassy, down-to-earth attitude, Russo has parlayed a successful modeling career into an equally prosperous acting one. While still a high school student, she caught the attention of John Crosby, an agent, who arranged for her to be signed by modeling agent Nina Blanchard. Russo was an immediate success and became one of the top models of the 1970s and early 80s. She appeared on the covers of many fashion magazines including Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. Russo moved to the Eileen Ford Agency where she worked with top fashion photographers like Richard Avedon and Francesco Scavullo. She also was featured prominently in a series of print ads and commercials for Revlon.
