| AT A GLANCE |
Bettie Page was a beautiful model. With locks as dark as midnight and a smile as bright as day, A
fable as much today as during her modeling days, every facet of Bettie's life and personality captures the interest and
attachment of the thousands of fans that followed her career until the day of her
strange vanishing.
Bettie shone with a newness. Without complicated props, costumes, or set-dressings, Bettie produced some of the most beautiful shots to ever grace the covers of hundreds of magazines. Bettie’s smoothly tanned skin,
with her deep blue eyes and coal black hair with her trademark bangs, were enough inspiration to spark the
mind of even the least experienced photographers.
As a teenager, Bettie and her sisters spent innumerable hours trying different makeup styles and hairdos imitating their favorite movie stars. At the local community centers, Bettie learned to cook and sew, the latter, a skill that proved particularly useful years later when Bettie made her own bikinis and costumes. In these centers, a young Bettie sought refuge from her home and found enough peace and
clam to do homework and study. It was her hard work and strength of mind that kept Bettie at the top of her class during her high school years. As a student, she was a member and program director of the Dramatics Club, secretary treasurer of the Student Council, coeditor of the school’s newspaper and yearbook; she was even voted "Most Likely to Succeed."
In 1953, Bettie auditioned for an apprenticeship at Sea Cliff Summer Theater in Long Island where she studied acting under the tutelage of Herbert Berghoff. With Berghoff’s encouragement, Bettie secured several roles in various New York productions as well as various television appearances.
