Iconic agency that spanned mid 70s to mid 90s reopened 2019 with its original founder, legendary Judith Fontaine. Fontaine is best known for securing the highest-paying beauty campaign in history for a male model: Davidoff's Cool Water fragrance for Men. She began the careers of well-known actresses and actors by recognizing their raw talent and giving them their start. Hero Models (under the ownership of Fontaine) was a top, nationally recognized male modeling agency representing some of the most elite male models in the world. Fontaine sold her companies in 1996 which shortly closed with their new owner. Reopened in 2019, Fontaine Hero is set to keep the legacy alive.
