Gia Carangi was one of the most iconic supermodels of the 1980s. Her androgynous look and edgy personality made her a favorite of photographers and designers, and she quickly became one of the most recognizable faces in the world.

But behind the glamour and success, Carangi was struggling with a secret addiction to heroin. Her addiction eventually led to her death from AIDS in 1986, at the age of 26.

In this intimate and revealing book, friends, colleagues, and coworkers of Carangi share their memories of her life and career. They paint a picture of a complex and troubled woman who was both brilliant and self-destructive.

The book is a cautionary tale about the dangers of fame and addiction, but it is also a celebration of Carangi's undeniable beauty and talent. Her story is a reminder that even the most successful people can be vulnerable to the temptations of drugs and alcohol.
