...father is a noted Swedish architect. She herself decided to be come a lawyer. But she lost patience with the law almost as soon as she entered school; for the past three years she has put her enthusiasm to work on TIME'S color projects. For this week's fashion layout, says Andrea, she was delighted that she and Photographer Ben Martin were able to use celebrities as models. The pros, she says, are not as much fun to deal with.

...problem: how to portray the Negro. Self-conscious to a fault, integrated commercials never show a Negro as a heavy or in a menial position. Nor are blacks ever afflicted with bad breath or body odor. Kool cigarettes, for example, casts a Negro actor as a bright young trial lawyer; Viceroy casts another as a bright young stockbroker. Schaefer beer has a junior executive type who plays hand ball at the club with a white friend, who throws his arm around his shoulder as they stroll off to a classy cocktail lounge...
