The iconic model looked back at her start in Chicago where she described herself as becoming "the big fish pretty quickly" in a small pond.
Cindy Crawford has revealed that she was earning more than her parents when she was an 18-year-old just starting her modeling career.
Crawford, in an interview with Christy Turlington Burns and Kelly Corrigan for the podcast series “Kelly Corrigan Wonders: About Your Mother,” reflected on her start as a model in Chicago where she became “the big fish pretty quickly” in a small pond.
“I was making more money than my parents made and more money then they could’ve ever even dreamed of,” said the iconic model.
“Quickly, within a year,” she added.
She said she had her own apartment, working with a “big photographer” every day there, before the allure of New York City started “pulling” her.
