Life Story
Christy Nicole Turlington is an American supermodel best known for representing Calvin Klein fragrances since 1987. She has had several accomplishments in the modeling industry, having had numerous million dollar contracts with companies like Maybelline, Chanel and Calvin Klein. Although she is known as one of the most successful supermodels in history, Christy has rejected the 'supermodel' label. She is widely respected in the fashion industry as one of the friendliest and most professional models in the business.
Turlington has been practicing Yoga since the early 1990s and is the author of Living Yoga: Creating A Life Practice. Owing to this interest in Eastern religions she went back to school in 1994 and graduated cum laude in 1999 from the Gallatin School of Individualized Study of New York University where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with a concentration in Comparative Religion and Eastern Philosophy. That’s actually kind of amazing if you think about it.
