Born in Bergisch Gladbach, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, Heidi Klum became famous after winning a televised modeling contest in Germany at age 18. After finishing school, she accepted the modeling contract she won and worked as a model throughout Europe briefly before moving to the United States. She lived in Miami, Florida with little success acquiring modeling jobs before moving to New York City. She acquired world-wide fame after signing a contract with Victoria's Secret and appearing on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 1998. Since then, she has appeared in many well-known fashion magazines, had several small acting roles in TV shows and movies, and produced and hosted two reality shows of her own: Project Runway and Germany's Next Top Model. She co-authored a book with Alexandra Postman entitled Body of Knowledge: Eight Rules of Model Behavior, which gives her biography, advice on how to be successful, and many of her favorite pictures.
