Modelling for GRUAU !!
- - - such a great “honour” for this young ‘model’ - - - I had been in Rome for about a year . . . modeling and playing small parts in Italian films being made, at that time, whilst studying “Lyrica” (singing) with a renowned Opera Singer, Lina Scavizzi . . .
when I met Renee . . . such a ‘gentleman’ ! . . . he asked me to pose for him, for an advertising campaign he was creating for Jantzen bathing suits - - - What an honour !!! - - - then, we became friends - - - |

in Grottaferrata . . . however, once we were married, Nicola did not like me modeling, so, I had to give it up!! - - except for him !! . . . and there are so many works of his, of ‘then’, of me!!] |
