Jenny Shimizu
Jenny Lynn Shimizu is an American model and actress. Born in San Jose, California in June 1967, Jenny grew up in Santa Maria, California and attended California State University, Northridge on a basketball scholarship. She later moved to Los Angeles to open a car garage. Soon after, Jenny was approached by a casting director while saddling her motorcycle outside an L.A. nightclub and introduced to Calvin and Kelly Klein. The designers were looking for a singular, androgynous face to represent their new fragrance, CK One. She landed her first fashion show for Calvin Klein at the Hollywood Bowl, followed by the pioneering black and white ad campaign. To date, Jenny was ranked as one of the 10 Most Amazing Women in Show Business by Power Up and one of A Magazine's "100 Most Influential Asian Americans of the Decade 1989-1999" and the "Philadelphia International Gay and Lesbian Film Festival 2006 Lesbian Icon Award."
