"New York and Paris in the sixties and seventies were glamorous and gritty at the same time, cities where people like Warhol, Avedon, Halston, and Lagerfeld, as well their muses, pursued their wildest ambitions. Though born an outsider, Patricia Cleveland, through a combination of luck, incandescent beauty, hard work, and enviable style, soon found herself in the center of all that was creative, bohemian, and elegant. As a "walking girl," a runway fashion model whose inimitable style still turns heads on the runways of New York, Paris, Milan, and Tokyo, Cleveland was in high demand. Ranging from the streets of New York to the jet-set beaches of Mexico, from the designer ateliers of Paris to the offices of Diana Vreeland, here is Cleveland's larger-than-life story. One minute she's in a Harlem tenement making her own clothes and dreaming of something bigger, the next she's about to walk Halston's show alongside fellow model Anjelica Huston. One minute she's partying with Mick Jagger and Jack Nicholson, the next she's sharing the dance floor beside a man with stark white hair, an artist she would later realize was Andy Warhol. One moment she's idolizing the silver-screen sensation Warren Beatty, then, years later, she's deciding whether to resist his considerable amorous charms. In New York, she struggles to secure her first cover of a major magazine. In Europe, she's the toast of the town. And through the whirlwind of it all, she is forever in pursuit of love, truth, and beauty. A page-turning memoir of a life well lived, Walking with the Muses is a book you won't soon forget."--Jacket.
