Discovered at the age of 15, she established herself among the top three most recognizable and in-demand models of the late 1980s and 1990s,and she was one of six models of her generation declared “supermodels” by the fashion world. Her personal life is widely reported, particularly her relationships with prominent men—including boxer Mike Tyson and actor Robert De Niro—and several highly-publicised convictions for assault.

She first met Mandela in November 1994, after his party, the African National Congress, invited her to travel to South Africa to meet with their leader. She had previously donated the proceeds from a photo shoot in Tanzania to the ANC. Over the years, Campbell has lent support to many of Mandela’s political campaigns and humanitarian causes.
