Beverly Johnson joined the 408 notables to receive the Golden Palm<br />

Award with her star #405 to be placed on the Palm Springs Walk of Stars<br />

on December 3rd, 2016. This beautiful woman was the first black woman<br />

to “cover” Vogue <strong>Magazine</strong> in 1974 and went on to hold that coveted<br />

spot on 500 fashion magazine covers during her career. “The Face That<br />

Changed It All” is Beverly’s book that chronicles her life with no holding<br />

back . . . facing challenges of racism, drug addition, a love affair with<br />

a famous athlete, a bad marriage, the usual jealousies and hardships<br />

associated with the fashion world, and her determination to move her<br />

career into film, TV, writing, and philantropy while holding her family<br />

together.<br />

It was a day to remember! Beverly Johnson Day on the sidewalk of<br />

Palm Springs with the star-studded line up of speakers: Bob Alexander,<br />
