Started From The Bottom
Just because she was beautiful didn’t imply she’d have an easy time achieving popularity and stardom. Fawcett worked as a commercial actress at the beginning of her career, as did many other stars. Max Factor, Mercury Cougar autos, Noxzema, and even Beautyrest Mattresses all used her in commercials. She began establishing her resume, and it wasn’t long before Hollywood realized she was unique. With a few guest appearances on sitcoms like I Dream of Jeannie and Flying Nun, she boosted her small-screen prominence. She toiled for a few years before her efforts began to pay off.

Poster Girl
In 1976, she finally broke through to the mainstream thanks to a single, famous poster. A concept was presented to Fawcett and her agency by the company Pro Arts Inc. They presented the idea of a poster. The Canton Brothers formed Pro Arts, which originally specialized in anti-war posters. It wasn’t until later that they decided to venture into Hollywood, with Farrah Fawcett as their first and only star. That famous swimsuit billboard was an instant hit. It went on to sell 12 million copies and is still the best-selling poster in the world today. That’s one way to get your career started.
