International cover girl and American model famous for her million-dollar smile, Beri Smither represents modern ageless beauty. Originally from Salem, Oregon, Beri was discovered at the Elle magazine studios in Paris by Carine Roitfeld. Her magical American launch was supported by fashion icons: Kevyn Aucoin, Linda Wells, Polly Mellon, Steven Klein, Donna Karan, & Peter Lindbergh. Beri’s collaborative editorial partnerships with top industry photographers: Patrick Demarchelier, Steven Meisel, Michael Thompson, Bruce Weber, Arthur Elgort, Albert Watson, Max Vadukul, Steven Sebring, Pamela Hanson, Robert Erdmann and Herb Ritts have resulted in some of the most recognizable images in the modeling world. Beri quickly became an icon synonymous with fashion publishing, record news stand sales, and commercial endorsements. Global fragrance campaigns, iconic advertising images, and endless editorial pages followed. Beri has appeared on the covers and worked with countless magazines including: American Vogue, British Vogue, Italian Vogue, French Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire, Glamour, and Cosmopolitan. In 1998, Beri appeared in her first Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Beri’s advertising campaigns include Chanel, DKNY, Armani, Versace, Gap, Target, Clairol, Forth and Towne, Nine West, & Revlon. "The beauty of Beri Smither is wholesome, sophisticated and approachable,” remarks manager Michael Flutie, “and she makes a statement without intimidation.” For over two decades Beri is still in demand and serves as a world-renowned fashion reference over her amazing career of modeling. As the nature of fashion, entertainment, and advertising continues to evolve, Beri continues to model full time and currently resides in New York City while mentoring young women and parents on the business of the fashion industry. In 2012, she appeared on E! Television’s “Scouted“ mentoring young model hopefuls. Beri remains grateful for all the wonderful experiences, and interesting people/artist that the modeling industry gave her.
