Jeanne Unbottled Adventures in High Style 2000 Hardcover in goodcondition, includes pictures in b/w. As the personality driving the success of Fashion Television, or FT, as it is more popularly known, Jeanne Beker is recognized around the world for her fresh and in-your-face approach to fashion reporting. When she comes knocking, microphone in hand, doors open - and standing there could be a swashbuckling John Galliano, a stately and reserved Bill Blass, an enigmatic and fan-waving Karl Lagerfeld, an effervescent Betsey Johnson, or a bashful Donatella Versace. But how did Jeanne end up with this great gig? How did the middle-class child of immigrant parents living in Toronto come to rub shoulders with the likes of Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Giorgio Armani, Tommy Hilfiger, and Donna Karan? In .Ieanne Unbottled, Beker tells us first-hand about her remarkable life, from her childhood days spent playing with scrap fabrics in her father's slipper factory, to her youthful preparations for an act- ing career, to the happy years she spent in Newfoundland, where she became the first ever Paris-trained mime to become a radio broadcaster. And she reveals with startling honesty the story of her painful marriage break-up, and what it took to regain her famously optimistic spirit. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
