Anna Nicole
Smith was born Vicki Lynn Hogan November
28, 1967, in Mexia, Texas. After her father
had abandoned her and her mother when she
was a child, she was raised by her mother
and aunt, commuting back and forth to each
caretaker.
At the age of 17, Anna (then Vicki) married
Billy Smith, and that same year, they welcomed
their son Daniel into the world. Time with
Billy was short-lived, as young Anna, now
a mother, headed to Houston to turn over
a new leaf.

In
order to pay the bills, she began working
at topless bars in Houston, where she was
actually more noticed for her rear than
for her breasts (she did not have the breasts
that men recognize today). But since she
was not as rail-thin as the rest of the
dancers, Anna did not work the coveted hours
of topless clubs, rather she was scheduled
in the afternoon shift.
Regardless,
Anna (who then used several pseudonyms such
as Nikki and Robin, before finally sticking
to Anna Nicole) was discovered by a photographer,
and quickly realized that she can use her
body as a career tool. Since her childhood
dream was to become the next Marilyn Monroe
(her idol), Anna was inspired to make more
of a name for herself.
