Modelling and Acting
Boyd began modelling in 1962; in London, New York, and Paris (for Quant, and others), and was photographed by Bailey and Donovan. She appeared on the cover of the UK and Italian editions of Vogue magazine in 1969, in the company of other popular models at the time, such as Jean Shrimpton, and Twiggy, who later admitted that when she began modeling in 1966, she based her appearance on Boyd. Boyd was asked by Gloria Stavers to write a regular column for 16 Magazine, and the director, Dick Lester, asked Boyd to appear in a TV commercial promoting Smith's crisps, which he remembered when casting for A Hard Day's Night, which would lead to meeting Harrison.

Famous quotes containing the words modelling and/or acting:
“The windy springs and the blazing summers, one after another, had enriched and mellowed that flat tableland; all the human effort that had gone into it was coming back in long, sweeping lines of fertility. The changes seemed beautiful and harmonious to me; it was like watching the growth of a great man or of a great idea. I recognized every tree and sandbank and rugged draw. I found that I remembered the conformation of the land as one remembers the modelling of human faces.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“Often, when there is a conflict between parent and child, at its very hub is an expectation that the child should be acting differently. Sometimes these expectations run counter what is known about children’s growth. They stem from remembering oneself, but usually at a slightly older age.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
