She also appeared in weekly ads for the local high end department store, May D&F. Her local success brought national attention, allowing her to spend some time in New York at the Ford Agency. She then went international, modeling in Japan and Italy, appearing in several magazines and newspapers as well as many cover photos. returning home, Renee spent several years modeling all over the United States, most notably in Texas and Ohio, where she had several appearances as an extra in the television program Walker, Texas Ranger and the film Born on the 4th of July. She then won the part of Linda Dufrense in the Academy Award winning film The Shawshank Redemption. Today, Renee is the proud mother of 3 children, 2 daughters and a son and is a very happy Grandmother. Show less «
