Andrea Leonelli was born and raised in Lakewood, Ohio. She did not have the perfect life at all. Despite of all the obstacles that she faced in her childhood including sexual abuse and then growing up with drug addiction, car accident, and cancer, she managed to build a multi-million dollar enterprise.
Now clean and sober for over 30 years, Leonelli tells her story with authentic power. She traces her drug dependency to being sexually abused as a child. She started using heroin at 14 and became a model at 17 in NYC.
She retired from modeling in 1996 but still a great beauty and currently living in Malibu.
