The Exciting Life of 80s Icon Bo Derek

When 10 transformed her life, Bo did not have an agent, a manager, or a detailed plan for building a Hollywood career. She later explained that she had never possessed the intense ambition shared by many young performers pursuing fame.

Instead of carefully preparing for stardom, she suddenly found herself surrounded by interviews, offers, expectations, and international attention. Bo felt as though she was constantly trying to catch up with events that were moving faster than she could understand them. Her next choices would determine whether 10 became the start of a respected career or an impossible act to follow.
