"A bighearted new memoir . . . Uptown Girl tells the story of a glamorous, resilient, and beloved All-American icon."--Woman's World Magazine

In 1974, a twenty-year-old Christie Brinkley was "discovered" outside a Paris phone booth, which set off a meteoric 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, the full story of her roller-coaster life has never been told.

Now, for the first time, Christie 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.

Through it all, Christie's unwavering belief in the magic and mystery of life has been her guiding light, even during her darkest times. It is with this grace and gratitude that she tenderly chronicles the unexpected, unexplainable ways her life has unfolded, embracing every adventure and twist of fate along the way: traveling the world as a supermodel at the height of the model wars, living life on the road with her rock-star husband and their baby, starring in blockbuster movies and hit sitcoms, riding horses with cowboys, training with world-champion boxers, and even stepping into the spotlight on Broadway.

A bighearted, beautifully crafted memoir of resilience and self-discovery, featuring more than 100 photographs and never-before-seen pieces of Christie's original artwork, Uptown Girl is the brave account of a life lived at full throttle and on full display.

Her unforgettable life, in her own words.

  • A Supermodel's Journey: From an accidental discovery at a Paris phone booth to becoming one of the most recognized faces of her generation--on her own terms.
  • Celebrity Marriages: An honest account of love, loss, and life on the road--including the marriage to Billy Joel and their public divorce.
  • Surviving the Unthinkable: A candid look at the experiences that nearly cut her life short, and the resilience that saw her through.
  • An Artist at Heart: More than a supermodel--a lifelong painter and creator, sharing over 100 photographs and original artworks many have never seen before.

I love reading and books. This is such a cute idea for my simpler jewelry to be housed. I wish it had a couple more bracelet and necklace holders, but besides that, I’m happy with it!!
