I don't know too much, just that she died of an overdose in the mid 70s right after her first Vogue and Cosmo covers came out. I've talked to someone who said they knew her....apparently Pola had a pretty troubled life. Her demise is described briefly in Bebe Buell's Rebel Heart - none too kindly - and since so little is know about Pola....it seems cruel to restate it when we only have the ugly side. I created a thread for her:
See - now that's why I love TFS. Learning new things all the time. Thanks so much for the update and I checked out the link. (I posted a possible pic.) Such a beauty & such a shame for her tragic circumstance. Rest in Peace.
