actress and model. Joan's family moved often while she was growing up. The family
had to leave Libya during the Six Day War in 1967. They moved back to Houston,

Joan attended Westbury High School while she modelled. Her aspiration was to
become a veterinarian although she didn't make enough for tuition. She was then
hired on at the Elite modeling agency which allowed her to travel again. It
was in Paris where she would marry Eric Milan in 1977. They later divorced in
