Audrey Munson, America’s First Supermodel

To The Editor:

Great, thanks to New Haven for its help giving a gravestone for Audrey Munson, America’s first supermodel.

I rediscovered her, and an article was printed in the New York TImes in 1996.

This led directly to the first Munson biography in 1999.

I asked the U.S. Postal Service about my application for a stamp and was told it had been rejected in 2000, but that it can be resubmitted.

Come on, USPS – only male sculptors get stamps?

Can someone else please send a letter to give her work the national honor it deserves?
