Gia's story haunts me. Every time I hear a mention of Carangi's Bakery I think of her. I remember seeing her in Glamour in the late seventies, and I had no idea that she was a junkie...she looked so healthy.

I even remember the last cover she did for Cosmopolitan Magazine, when she had to hide her track-marked arms. There's a book about her, too; definitely worth a read. Her story may not be so unusual; there is some weird shit that goes on in that world.
