Isabelle Caro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Isabelle Caro is a French woman from Marseilles, France. Isabelle became well-known by making headlines after appearing in a highly controversial ad campaign by photographer Oliviero Toscani.
She has suffered from severe anorexia nervosa since she was 13 years old. Her anorexia was caused by what she calls a 'troubled childhood.' When she appeared on TV Channel CBS's The Insider, it was revealed that at the worst of her eating disorder, her weight had gone as low as 25kg (55 pounds) at a height of 1.65m (5'5"), her most recent weight being 33kg (73 pounds).
Currently she plans to write a book to tell the public about her struggles with the illness, and is maintaining a weblog where others can see her story.
She recently appeared on C4's Supersize vs Superskinny which aired on 11th of March 2008, in which she spoke to journalist Anna Richardson about her anorexia.
