Farrah Fawcett was an American success story. Born and raised in Texas, she rose to be a modern American sex symbol.
She was an actress, television star, and pop-culture phenomenon whose lush good looks and signature leonine hairstyle influenced a generation of women.
Nobody in recent memory comes close to the giddy heights of popularity that Farrah Fawcett reached in the mid-’70s, stemming from one season on the TV show “Charlie’s Angels” and one “Perfect Pin-Up Poster.”
The poster of Ms. Fawcett in a red one-piece bathing suit, tanned, head tossed, body lithe yet curvy, was a revelation. She looked delicious, her gleaming white teeth frozen in a friendly but slightly cat-like smile, with her gorgeous blonde hair. That poster ended up on every teenage boy’s bedroom wall and in the annals of pop culture. Farrah was the face, body, and hair of the 1970s.
Farrah Fawcett had a meteoric rise as an American sex symbol, and yet she tried hard to be more than that. She wanted to be considered a serious actress.
But her life and career were rudely shaken and interrupted by a pernicious form of cancer that took all of her time and energy to fight. She lost the battle at the age of 62.
Farrah Fawcett may be gone, but her image lives on, and her spirit will always be In Heaven with the Stars.
