1956: A Young Jerry Hall
Born Jerry Faye Hall, the model grew up in a working-class Texas town. Her dad desperately wanted sons, which is why she and her twin sister, Terry, both have "boy" names.
1960: Growing Up Hall
Hall and her five sisters grew up terrified of their father, a former army sergeant-turned-truck driver, who was an abusive alcoholic. "He was very volatile and very dangerous. Now it would be called post-traumatic stress syndrome. He was very damaged," Hall told The Guardian.

As a teenager, Hall began modeling in Texas for the Kim Dawson Agency. She showed promise in the industry—at 14 years old she already stood 5 foot 10. Little did she know she would later grow another two inches.
