"1960s Forest Hills Sexy Model Photographs (UPI Photo & Press Release).
Colleen Corby, the pretty model from Forest Hills, Queens, Long Island that appeared in all the late 1960s fashion magazines. Never a household name like Twiggy but widely recognized by that generation. I believe she was also known as Mollie Corby."

"… skirts crept their way up (way up) from the mini (mid-thigh) to the micro (up to the wahoo). Twiggy came out about this time (at 5’6” and 92 lbs and wrecked it for all us gals – Colleen Corby, you did too! At 5’7” and 96 lbs, you should’ve ate more!)"

"Colleen if you do read this I just want you to know what a role model you were for me growing up. We would sit in our high school library and treasure each and every one of your photos in Seventeen magazine and then try to recreate your look. I still have one of the dresses you wore in an ad. I saved my money and sent off for it through the mail. I still love that dress to this day. You did more than just model clothes and makeup, you inspired a generation of young women."

"They always used top models because they sold the patterns as well as they sold the magazines. Colleen was a brand and her picture on a product assured a sale."

"About my avatar: I get a lot of questions about my avatar. No, she's not me, although she looks like my image of myself. I didn't know who she was until I'd been using her image for a while. Someone told me that she looked like the 1960s model Colleen Corby. I did a websearch, and sure enough, that's who she is."

"Now that I've found this kindred group, I'll have to take my 'TEEN magazines out of their frames and scan the ones that are missing from the gallery. I kid you not... I have framed Colleen 'Teen Magazines hanging on my bathroom walls."

"I have a folder absolutely stuffed with a collection of photos of her that I have kept all these years. I used to cut them out of mags and catalogues all the time. My best friend and I were always waiting for the new issues every month just for the photos of her .... I have never been able to bear to part with them so they are stored away in the closet. I also have a scrapbook I made of any articles I could find about her. As I said, I was quite a fan!"

"I remember when I was growing up, my sister and I used to cut up the old Sears catalogs, used to cut out the models, use them for paperdolls. The model I had cut out I later found out was the famous model Colleen Corby."

"At a young age her only source of fashion and beauty was gathered from the pages of Seventeen magazine. Close to her Bible, it was the second best book in her mind. Her role model in Seventeen was Colleen Corby, a very popular model in the 60s. 'I wondered how she had such beautiful dark hair and camera-ready makeup,' says Christi. Christi dreamed of having that same poise, grace and beauty."

"She was as cute as a bug's ear, and even though I was just a little thing...I always had to smile at how adorable she was ...."

"Every girl I knew in high school wanted to be Colleen. She was perfection to us."

"I am glad she was a brunette and not a blonde. She wouldn't have been so striking. She could project a look of complete innocence, or look like an exotic gypsy. I wanted to look just like her."

"She had looks, and specifically lips, that boys could dream about, but she also seemed like she could be your pretty best friend."

" ... the most incredible thing is that she had a kind of presence that reached out beyond the two dimensional page, like a familiar friend in a photograph. That is a God given gift!"

"I sent a letter to Colleen before Xmas, but as yet have had no reply. Maybe she felt it was an invasion of her privacy. But will let everyone know if she does write back!"

"I'm not at all taken back or offended by her lack of participation. I mean... that was a different time... a different life entirely. I'm guessing that there's a very real possibility that the Colleen from ... 30-40 years ago is as much a stranger to the 2004 Colleen as she is to us."

"I think that Colleen is probably a very practical person and has put her past behind her. Some people are just not that into nostalgia. It probably seems like centuries ago to her."

"Colleen had a younger sister, Molly, who also had a twin brother, Bobby. As a close friend of Molly's in the late 60's and early 70's, I was a frequent visitor to their apt on 57th St. I recall Colleen as being quite self-absorbed. She barely ever acknowledged my presence in her family home. Guess I was invisible."

"Once somebody from the Colleen site asked me if I had ever met Colleen and I said no. Then someone sent in a picture of us together! Then it came back to me. It was a Kodel ad where they were shooting several ads in one day. It was all a blur. I must have had three shoots that day. I did see her in the dressing room and was secretly thrilled because she had been an inspiration to me, and one of my favorite models, but we were not introduced and she was not the chatty type, although perfectly polite and friendly. She was perfectly made up and looked great in real life...just like she did in the photos. We stepped onto the set together and 1-2-3 it was over and I never saw her again."

I was a teen model in the mid sixties for Montgomery Ward and with our tutor, Marilyn Brasher, attended a fashion show in Chicago at a disco somewhere and met this young lady. Very impressed by her poise, yet she was real - real people if you know what I mean. Not snotty like some of the models we met.

"Who I'd like to meet: Open-minded people of similar interests. Also, anyone who knows the retired fashion model, Colleen Corby Bernuth. I am a lifelong fan of her's. A Psychic once told me that she and I used to be neighbors and best friends in a past life. LOL But she followed her husband on a quest and left me behind to die in childbirth. Maybe that's why I have never had children in this life. LOL"

"... as you know Col has a great sense of humor so would love the idea of the bobbleheads, but as Col also has a Lion's dignity would pass on the licensing. LOL"

"I explained that it was 'all in good fun' and that Colleen had an excellent sense of humor. I am certain that she would be the first to admit to even more 'worst photos'."

"I cannot imagine who modelbrat is; it does not sound like Colleen. She and I spent so much time together, she was a great friend ..."

"I started this site because of my past love for Colleen. Just to make matters simple and not to get 'heavy' about it. I was abused as a child, probably would have ended up as a teen suicide, but Colleen kept me alive. ... Poor Colleen, I gave her a lot of trouble all those years ago I'm afraid ..."

"OMG, I loved Colleen Corby ... it sometimes seemed she was the only brunette in a sea of California blondes. And she had a great smile ... so many times in her pictures, she didn't smile."
