Cynthia Ann "Cindy" Crawford (born February 20, 1966) is an American model. Her success at modeling made her an international celebrity that has led to roles in television and film, and to work as a spokesperson. In 1995, Forbes magazine named her the highest paid model on the planet.〔(Cindy Crawford Biography. ) askmen.com. Retrieved 2012-11-12.〕 She was named No. 3 on VH1's ''40 Hottest Hotties of the 90s'' and was named one of the "100 Hottest Women of All-Time" by ''Men's Health''. Crawford is known for her trademark mole just above her lip, and has appeared on hundreds of magazine covers throughout her career. ==Early life== Cynthia Ann Crawford was born in DeKalb, Illinois, on February 20, 1966, the daughter of Jennifer Sue Crawford-Moluf (née Walker) and John Dan Crawford.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.geneall.net/U/per_page.php?id=1001935 )〕 She has two sisters, Chris and Danielle,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sole Mates )〕 as well as a brother Jeffery who died of childhood Leukemia at age 3. She has stated that her family has been in the U.S. for generations and that her ancestry is mostly German, English, and French.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Twitter/CindyCrawford )〕 By appearing in an episode of ''Who Do You Think You Are?'' in 2013, she discovered that her ancestors included English nobility and continental royal families of the Middle Ages, and that she was descended from Charlemagne.〔Mike Parker, (Cindy Crawford has royal blood: SUPERMODEL Cindy Crawford has learnt that she is related to the Emperor Charlemagne ) dated 1 September 2013 at express.co.uk, accessed 2 February 2014〕 In her sophomore year at high school, she received a call from a local clothing store regarding modelling work, only to discover that it was a practical joke set up by two of her classmates. However, the following year another store hired a number of high school girls, including Crawford, to work for them (including a fashion shoot). In her junior year local photographer Roger Legel, whose duties included photographing a different college girl to be that week's coed in the ''DeKalb Nite Weekly'', asked to take her picture for the publication; the result was Crawford's first cover.〔Cindy Crawford with Katherine O'Leary, p. 22, ''Becoming'', Rizzoli, 2015, ISBN 978-0-8478-4619-1〕 The photo and positive feedback she received were enough to convince her to take up modeling. She entered the Elite Model Management's Look of the Year contest at 17 and was the runner-up. Elite Model Management in Chicago then started representing her. Crawford graduated from DeKalb High School in 1984, as valedictorian. She won an academic scholarship to study chemical engineering at Northwestern University, which she attended for only one quarter. She dropped out in order to pursue a full-time modeling career. After working for photographer Victor Skrebneski in Chicago, Crawford moved to Manhattan in 1986 and signed with the Elite New York modeling agency.
