Timeline

1945

Catherine Helen Sachs née Cathee Dahmen (September 16, 1945 – November 25, 1997) was the first Native American supermodel in the 1960s and 1970s.

She was half German, half Chippewa and was born and raised in Minnesota.

Dahmen left home at the age of 17 to live with her uncle, artist George Morrison, in Providence, Rhode Island.

She was discovered in her late teens by The New York Times illustrator Antonio Lopez, who spotted her uncle's portrait of her and was ultimately responsible for her introduction into the fashion industry.

1960

Dahmen spent her peak years with Ford Models, where she was one of the agency's top earners of the 1960s.

1962

In 1962, while still in high school, she gave birth to her first daughter, Veronica Rose Dahmen (now author Susan Fedorko) who at the age of 11 months—and without Dahmen's knowledge or consent—was placed up for adoption with the Smith family, by Dahmen's mother.

Heartbreak associated with this incident precipitated Dahmen's relocation to Providence, Rhode Island.

1968

She appeared on the covers of numerous fashion magazines including, Harper's Bazaar in 1968 and both UK Vogue and Italia in 1971 She was also associated with the Youthquake movement.

Dahmen grew up in South Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Dahmen had by then two children with Merrill, daughter Laura Ann Sachs and son Allan Preston Sachs Jr.

The couple later divorced and Merrill remarried.

1972

This marriage produced a daughter in 1972, Sarah Beth Whiting, who died in 2014, but not before reuniting with her half sister, author Susan Fedorko.

1980

Dahmen retired from modeling in 1980s and died in 1997 from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

She was survived by her 3 children.

2009

A 2009 Denver Post article revealed that this daughter had been adopted by a Minnesota family and only later discovered that her mother "became a supermodel in the 1970s and hung out with the likes of Mick Jagger and Andy Warhol."

After marrying young British actor Leonard Whiting, Dahmen moved to London, where she continued her career, modeling for Models 1.
