Looking for the Girl

Celebrated photographer Dean Smith tells interviewer Miranda how, as a teenager, he became besotted with Charlotte, a 19-year old model whose photograph he saw in a men's magazine. Bizarrely, over the years, he would see her again and again in different publications under different names but still only nineteen. All his efforts to track her down were in vain until, some twenty years after his first sight of her, she walked into his newly acquired first studio to model for him and still gave her age as nineteen. Rather than try to explain the enigma he has treasured it, regarding her as his first and only muse.
