Throwback Thursday: Kit Johnson

Throwback Thursday is back, today featuring 100% more narcissism.

Here’s the thing. New York City’s Fashion Week is underway. Melania Trump has been in the news for about a solid month, facing scrutiny over her time in the United States as a foreign fashion model (or undocumented migrant?). Other Trump models have come forward talking about their shady immigration history.

So, in fairness, I couldn’t resist. I had to nominate myself for Throwback Thursday.

Specifically, I recommend my piece Importing the Flawless Girl, 12 Nev. L. J. 831 (2011). The article gives an overview of how the modeling world works, the mechanics of the current H1B3 visa for foreign fashion models, and how that visa came to be. It also covers failed attempts at reforming that visa, which were spearheaded by… wait for it… disgraced public servant Anthony Weiner. For reals, people. You can’t make up stories like that.
