Jamie Brewer is an actress well known for her work on “American Horror Story”, and she is also an advocate for people with intellectual disabilities. Tomorrow, as Jamie Brewer strides down the catwalk during New York Fashion Week, she'll not only be showing off an original design by Carrie Hammer, but she will also become the first woman with Down syndrome to grace the runway. She said of the honor;
“Young girls and even young women … [see me] and say ‘hey, if she can do it so can I. It’s a true inspiration being a role model for any young women to [encourage them] in being who they are and showing who they are.”
