others, like the story that goes with a
black and white photo of model Nell
Theobald, are shocking and tragic.
Theobald is seen posing with a lion at
a BMW press conference during the
1966 New York auto show.
"Seconds after this publicity photo
was taken with television cameras
rolling, 225-pound Ludwig the Lion
sunk his jaws into her thigh and held
tight until his handlers could pry
her loose reads the accompanying
passage. "Doctors were able to save
Theobald's leg, but post-traumatic
stress interrupted her career ... Sadly,
she later took her own life."
Another passage focuses on the auto
show from the models perspective.
"You see every type of person imag-
inable. You watch mothers take their
babies into the back seat of an open
vehicle to change diapers ... Some
people act rude to try and get you to
yell at them. You get marriage propos-
als all the time:"
In conjunction with the book's
release, the Detroit Public Library
Friends Foundation and the Friends of
the NAHC launched an free exhibition.
Dozens of photographs and memora-
bilia of auto show models are on dis-
play through April 30 at the library's
Skillman Branch on Gratiot in Detroit.
"It's fantastic;' she said. "There are
old audio and video clips of Dinah
Shore singing 'See the USA in your
Chevrolet: Some of the vintage adver-
tising is just remarkable."

Krevsky also recently learned Sirens
of Chrome made the 2009 Michigan
Notable Books list. She'll be honored
along with other authors during a spe-
cial ceremony at the governor's man-
sion in April. But first, there's this year's
Detroit auto show to attend to. Over the
next few weeks, Krevsky will be on the
auto show floor among the anticipated
crowd of more than 700,000 people. But
things will be different. Many compa-
nies are scaling back due to the econo-
my: Nissan, Infiniti, Mitsubishi, Rolls-
Royce, Ferrari, Suzuki, Land Rover and
Porsche will not have exhibits.
Through it all, Krevsky remains
optimistic.
"The Mustang is very important, so
is the Corvette — classic basics that
are true she says. "Detroit is an auto-
motive town. These are very bright
people running these companies. Have
they made mistakes? Yes. But there
isn't a company that hasn't. I think
we'll see things turn around!' LT_
