Let's make this one an ode to Cindy Crawford, an Illinois Native. The other geocache we placed in this park was more factual. Let's celebrate Cindy. ;)
Cynthia Ann "Cindy" Crawford (born February 20, 1966 in Dekalb, Illinois) 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.
She was discovered at the age of 16 by a newspaper photographer who noticed her at work during her summer job of
detasseling corn and took a picture of her. 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.
