Jeanne clung to her earlv
ambition and in SeDtember.
1B48, was graduated from the
fcngiewood Hospital school of
nursing. After graduation she
joined the staff of Columbia
baby hospital.
Her oft duty hours were tak
en up with further medical stu
dies at Columbia University.
After finishing her courses, she
signed up for a Barbizon model
ing course.
"I didn't intend to become a
model," she said. "I just took
tne course to have something
interesting to do. I guess I sort
of drifted into the modeling
field."
The school was so impressed
with her beauty and photogenic
qualities that they asked her to
give up nursing and become
a full-time fashion model.
'I told them 'No.' I'm a nurse
I have always wanted to be a
nurse and I intend to remain ac
tive in hospital work," she said,
"I told them 'if you want me
to do fashion modeling I will,
just so long as it doesn't conflict
with my duties at the hospital.' "
Jeanne still follows her rule,
modeling only when she is off
duty from the hospital.
Her life, however, was not al
ways one of success and good
fortune. At the age of six she
was run down by a truck and
suffered paralysis of the face.
Doctors were considering the
advisibility of operating or a
wait and watch policy.
The latter course was decid
ed upon "temporarily." It prov
ed successful. The blood clot
which caused the paralysis
cleared up and muscular co-ordination
was restored.
Before becoming a nurse and
model, Jeanne taught swimming
and diving at the Graydon pool
in Ridgewood for two years.
Today she remains an ardent
swimming enthusiast, listing it
on a par with her other hobbies
of modeling and walking.
Jeanne is five feet 6 inches
tall, weights 109, has dark hair,
blue eyes and a captivating
smile. Added to that is her in
nate charm, intelligence and viv
acious personality.
Her ambition, Incidentally, is
to marry and have five children
"I don t particularly care whe-
ther they are all boys, all girls
mixed," she said, "just so
long as there are at least five
of them "
