Kathleen Marie "Kathy" Ireland (born March 20, 1963) is an American model, actress, author and entrepreneur.[2][3][4] Ireland was a supermodel in the 1980s and 1990s, best known for appearing in 13 consecutive Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues. In 1993, she founded a brand marketing company, "kathy ireland Worldwide" (kiWW), which has made her one of the wealthiest former models in the world.[3][5][6]

Early life

Kathy Ireland was born in Glendale, California, the daughter of John Ireland, a labor union organizer, and Barbara Ireland, who worked in charity.[7] Her first job was a paper route when she was 11. Her father showed her an ad for it which read “Are you the boy for the job?”, to which she responded with a letter to the newspaper, "No, I'm not the boy for the job, I'm the girl for the job, and I can do it just as well as any boy. I think that I deserve a chance." They gave it to her.[8]

Modeling

At age 16, Ireland was discovered by an agent for the Elite Model Management company.

She has appeared on covers for Vogue, Cosmopolitan,[9] Forbes,[3] Mademoiselle,[10] Glamour, Teen and Seventeen.

Starting in 1984, Ireland was featured in the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue for 13 consecutive years, with her final appearance in 1996.[11] She appeared on the cover of the annual issue three times, a feat tied by Christie Brinkley and Cheryl Tiegs, and surpassed only by Elle Macpherson (with five appearances). Ireland was the cover model for the first time on the 25th Anniversary Swimsuit Edition, which became SI 's best selling swimsuit issue to date.[12][13] She returned to the cover in 1992 and in 1994. In her third appearance, she was accompanied by Rachel Hunter and Elle Macpherson, who were both pregnant at the time.[13]

As a teenager, Ireland reported that a photographer once "crossed the line" with her and wanted her to pose topless. She did not feel comfortable and he did not respect her "no." He reportedly pushed her and got physical and she "decked him."[14]

During SI Swimsuit's 50th Anniversary event, Ireland's 1989 cover was awarded "The Greatest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Of All Time."[15]

Business ventures

kathy ireland Worldwide

In 1993, Ireland put her name on a line of socks for Kmart, which became a bestseller.

The retailer subsequently gave Ireland her own clothing line including swimwear, active wear, accessories, sweaters and more.[16][17]

She then founded kathy ireland Worldwide, initially a brand marketing firm, which she and her related trusts own in its entirety.[18] The company concentrated on building its business in home products in 2003, after it cut its exclusive ties to Kmart.[17]

In 2004, Ireland's annual take was thought to be around $10 million. Forbes described Ireland as a "prototype for model-turned-mogul" in a 2006 article about the trend of modelpreneurs.[19] By 2004, kathy ireland Worldwide was marketing products from 16 manufacturers, including those of Nourison[20] and Pacific Coast Lighting.[2][16] Between 2005-2012, Ireland's company grew to about $2 billion in annual sales and became a leader in its industry.[2][3][21] In a May 2012 British Vogue article, Ireland was called the world's richest model.[22][23]

Ireland's firm develops additional brand collections under the names kathy ireland Jardin and kathy ireland ACafe. These collections are collaborations with Nicholas Walker for Jardin and Chef Andre Carthen for ACafe.[24]

Kathy Ireland, Warren Buffett and Bill Gates at the 2015 Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders Meeting
