When one thinks of the quintessential American supermodel, Cheryl Tiegs inevitably comes to mind. Born on September 25, 1947, in Breckenridge, Minnesota, Tiegs redefined beauty standards and left an indelible mark on the fashion industry. Her journey from a small-town girl to an international icon is as fascinating as it is inspiring.
Early Life and Breakthrough
Cheryl’s journey began in Alhambra, California, where her family moved when she was a child. Despite her beauty, Cheryl was more interested in academics. It wasn’t until her senior year of high school that she decided to send some photos to modeling agencies.
Her big break came when she was featured on the cover of Glamour magazine in 1964, while she was still a teenager. This cover was a sensation, and soon, she became a household name.

Rising Stardom and Cultural Impact
Cheryl Tiegs is best known for her appearances in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. Her 1978 cover, featuring her in a fishnet swimsuit, became an iconic image and represented a shift in the portrayal of women in media. Tiegs also launched her own line of clothing and accessories for Sears, becoming one of the first models to leverage her brand in such a way.
Beyond Modeling: A Multifaceted Career
Tiegs ventured into various fields, appearing on television shows like “The Love Boat” and “Fantasy Island,” and participating in reality TV. She became an advocate for health and wellness, promoting a balanced lifestyle long before it became trendy.
Cheryl Tiegs’ personal life has been as eventful as her professional one. She has been married four times and has two sons. Despite the ups and downs, she has always remained resilient. In addition to her professional achievements, Tiegs has supported organizations focused on environmental conservation and children’s education, using her platform to make a positive impact.
