Timeline

1949

Penelope Tree (born 2 December 1949) is an English fashion model who rose to prominence during the swinging sixties in London.

Penelope Tree is the only child of Ronald, a British journalist, investor and Conservative MP, and Marietta Peabody Tree, a U.S. socialite and political activist.

She is the half-sister of both the racehorse trainer Jeremy Tree and the author Frances Fitzgerald and a niece of former Massachusetts governor Endicott Peabody.

Tree's family initially objected to her career as a model, and when she was first photographed at the age of 13 by Diane Arbus, her father vowed he would sue if the pictures were published.

1966

Tree made a striking appearance at the 1966 Black and White Ball thrown by the author Truman Capote, wearing a black V-neck tunic with long slashes from the bottom making floating panels, worn over black tights.

The sensation she caused led photographers Cecil Beaton and Richard Avedon to work together to make her a supermodel.

She was sixteen and her father had relented.

David Bailey described Penelope as "an Egyptian Jiminy Cricket".

1967

In 1967, Tree moved into Bailey's flat in London's Primrose Hill neighbourhood.

It became a social space for hippies during the "Swinging Sixties" who, Bailey recalled, would be "smoking joints I had paid for and calling me a capitalist pig!"

In another famous quote, when John Lennon was asked to encapsulate Tree in three words, he replied, "Hot, Hot, Hot, Smart, Smart, Smart!"

Tree has been extensively compared to The Beatles for inspiring the swinging 60's movement and for galvanizing a generation of young American females.

1970

Scars from late-onset acne ended her career in the early 1970s: "I went from being sought-after to being shunned because nobody could bear to talk about the way I looked."

1972

In 1972, she was arrested for possession of cocaine.

1974

In 1974, Bailey and Tree split up and she moved to Sydney.

1978

She appeared in the British comedy film The Rutles in 1978.

She was married to South African musician Ricky Fataar (a member of The Flames, The Rutles, and the Beach Boys).

She has two children, Paloma Fataar (a graduate of Bard College and a student of Tibetan Buddhism and music), and Michael MacFarlane, by her relationship with Australian Jungian analyst Stuart MacFarlane.

Penelope Tree is a patron of Lotus Outreach, a charity which works in Cambodia in partnership with local grassroots women's organisations to give girls from the very poorest families the wherewithal to go to school.

1983

In 1983, English indiepop band Felt released a song called Penelope Tree, featuring a picture of her on the cover.

2011

In 2011, she appeared as an interviewee for a documentary on the life of fashion editor Diana Vreeland.

2017

In 2017, she was interviewed for a documentary about Beaton called Love,Cecil
