Breaking the Mold: Discovered at age 17, Kathy Ireland, the model,
became a household name by the mid-1980s with her huge blue
eyes, wide smile, fl owing brown locks and athletic physique. She was
pictured in 13 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues, including three covers.
But instead of drifting into has-been supermodel obscurity as she
aged, she became one of the fi rst of her kind to use her well-known
E
S name to launch a second career.

Birthplace: Beloit, Wis.
Best Known As: Race car driver, model
Life in the Fast Lane: It’s that perfect
moment after the race car blazes across
the fi nish line, the wheels screech to a halt,
and the driver emerges. When the helmet
comes off, long, black hair frames piercing,
dark eyes. But this is no sports fan’s fantasy.
This is Danica Patrick, all 5-foot-2 and 100
pounds of her. She’s the fi rst woman to win
an Indy car race (the 2008 Indy Japan 300)
and the woman with the best Indianapolis
500 fi nish ever — she came in third in
2009. She barged unashamed into the boys
club of racing, and has parlayed her racing
success into a career as a spokeswoman and
model, including two appearances in the
Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Despite
her 36 top 10 racing wins, some of her
male competitors continue to question her
driving acumen. Perhaps it’s just that they
can’t handle being beaten by a girl.
