My Take
Bebe Buell fascinates me precisely because she has spent decades resisting the footnote role history tried to assign her. Yes, the 1974 Playmate title and the famous rock romances are the headlines, but she always insisted she was a singer-songwriter in her own right. Arriving in New York in 1972 and signing with Eileen Ford, she stood at the center of an era, yet never surrendered her own creative identity to the men around her. I admire women who keep their art and their selfhood intact in scenes designed to make them accessories. She did exactly that.
