Fashion - Amanda Gorman
Shortly after the Presidential Inauguration, and following a powerful recitation of her poem, "The Hill We Climb," Amanda Gorman was signed to IMG Models.
She was also the best part of last night's Super Bowl broadcast, with "Chorus of the Captains."
It's not entirely random that she'd end up with a modeling contract. She starred in a LOFT ad campaign in 2020 and went on assignment for Prada, traveling to Slovenia to understand how fishing nets and carpet were being upcycled into their Re-Nylon bags.

It was in April 2017 that Amanda became the very first National Youth Poet Laureate in US history.
In 2014, at the age of 16, she founded One Pen One Page, a non-profit organization that encourages youth advocacy, leadership development, and poetry workshops.
