## Caption

From first-time model to one of the most iconic figures in contemporary film, this British woman was at the right place at the right time. 🗽⁠
⁠
In 1992, artist #MichaelDeas was commissioned by #ColumbiaPictures to update its famous logo by painting a modern version of Miss Liberty. He recruited photographer #KathyAnderson, who was working for local newspaper @nolanews, to capture images of the creative process. When she was scouting for models, one of her colleagues suggested #JennyJoseph. ⁠
⁠
In a 2012 interview with @wwltv, the 28-year old, who never modeled again, said, “They wrapped a sheet around me and I held a regular little desk lamp, a side lamp. I just held that up and we did that with a light bulb.”⁠
⁠
We spoke to Anderson about the shoot, and she recalls it being a "fun-filled and creatively fused couple hours of shooting, studying Polaroid test prints and rearranging the bed sheet wrapped around Jenny.” ⁠
⁠
She says she was "amazed" when she saw the logo appear in a movie theater for the first time. "After a while, the image took on a life of its own, which completely surprised me. Decades after its creation, people are still fascinated with the image.”⁠
⁠
Anderson and Joseph, who are still friends today, were both taken back by the level of recognition they achieved. "To this day, Jenny occasionally sends me funny GIFs that people have made from the logo.”⁠
