Betty Page (1923–2008) was an American model and cultural icon whose photographs helped define the glamour and pin-up aesthetic of the 1950s. Born in Nashville, Tennessee, Page became renowned for her jet-black bangs, radiant smile, and confident, playful poses in swimsuit, lingerie, and fetish-themed photography. She worked with leading photographers including Irving Klaw and became one of the era's most recognizable pin-up models before retiring from modeling in the late 1950s. After decades of relative obscurity, her image experienced a major revival beginning in the 1980s, inspiring artists, fashion designers, filmmakers, and photographers, and establishing Betty Page as one of the most enduring and influential figures in American popular culture.
