(Reviewing Skrebneski's book, "Five Beautiful Women" about his work with Casey and the other Lauder models.)] The first Lauder advertisement in which she appeared is known as "Great American Desert." ["Notes on Fashion," by John Duka. "New York Times", Feb 3, 1981. page B.12.] Skrebneski explained that the Lauder models, like Casey, were selected for their clean look of "good breeding."

In the late 1970s Casey was associated with famous hairstylist, John Sahag, who created a stir by cutting her hair extremely short and bleaching it white for a Helmut Newton cover of French Vogue. [ [https://www.vmagazine.com/fashion_article.php?n=525 Heroes: John Sahag] , "V Magazine".]

Casey also had a small role in the 1977 Woody Allen romantic comedy "Annie Hall".

Casey described modeling as "a grind, just like any other job" and said of her pictures, "gosh, I wish I looked like that every day." ["The Changing Face of Beauty: A photographer's favorite models", by Trish Donnelley. "San Francisco Chronicle", Nov 16, 1987, page B.4.]

No longer working as a model, she lives in California with her husband & two daughters.
