- Elizabeth Moskow
Elizabeth Moskow (born November 19, 1955) was a European model during the years of 1973-1981. Discovered by photographer, while working construction on a road for a class project, the smiley Elizabeth in her construction hard hat photos became the sexy images that brought her to the attention of many photographers, but Theodor was the man who helped guide her career into the hands of agency. Born in Poland, where her career catipulted, she first made a name for herself throughout the country after appearing in various well-known Polish magazines as a swimsuit model, billboards, and in print ads. She eventually gained recognition after gracing the cover of the Polish Cosmopolitan as the "Ekstremalny Elizabeth" (translation: "Extreme Elizabeth"); a title given to her for her famous photo standing atop an aircraft wearing nothing but a swimsuit and goggles. Throughout her career, Elizabeth was seen on news segments and television shows all over Europe being interviewed or playing a bit part.
The highest television credit she obtained was in 1980 when she shot 10 episodes of the Polish tv series "Droga" playing the convoluted character, Ewelina, a spiritual, sweet and yet sometimes drugged up singer of the band "Eutanazja" (translation: "Euthanasia.") Her time on "Droga" came to an end when Elizabeth decided it was time to go to America and fulfill her desire to see New York and become an architect; subsequently, Ewelina died of a drug overdose. Her time on the show proved her ability to act and moreover, the public discovered that Elizabeth had a beautiful, melodic voice.
During the years of 1975-1979, Elizabeth traveled Europe to appear in more print ads for an array of different European products. She went to France in 1980 after branching out.
