Early Career
Two weeks after walking into Eileen Ford's modeling agency (ostensibly to look for a summer job) Corby was sent on her first modeling assignment.

By her last year of high school she was so busy she hardly ever attended classes.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or career:
“It is so very late that we
May call it early by and by. Good night.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
