Crystal Renn: Stunning Model Beats Anorexia
Heavier - and Happier
Crystal Renn, 24, beat anorexia to become one of America's top models - and an outspoken critic of the "thin equals pretty" mindset that prevails in fashion circles.
She calls the day she posed for this picture for her 2009 book "Hungry" one of the most important in her life. "I was ecstatic to the point where sitting still was nearly impossible," she says. "I was hopeful, full of passion, and believed everything was possible."
