Elizabeth Pipko

Pipko was signed to Wihemina Models[1] at age 17.[2] She has appeared in Maxim, DT, Esquire, and L’officiel, and in the early stages of her career she was often compared to Emily Ratajkowski, with many noting their similar appearances.[3] In 2018, she appeared in the "Perfectly Imperfect" campaign for Vizcaya Swimwear, an anti-photoshop campaign promoting positive body image.[4][5]

Pipko has said that her political work and views are what cut her career short, though she made an appearance in a spread in QP magazine in 2019. When asked what it meant to her to be modelling again, she said “This is about showing young girls that they can do anything they want to do. From modeling to politics and everything in between."[6]

Pipko self-published two books of poetry: Sweet Sixteen (2013, ISBN 9781480800731) and About You (2018, ISBN 1480863106).

In 2020, Pipko's book Finding My Place: Making My Parents' American Dream Come True (2020, ISBN 164293559X) was released through Post Hill Press.

In 2016, Pipko volunteered for Donald Trump's 2016 campaign For President.[7]

In 2019, Pipko is a spokesperson for The Exodus Movement — originally named Jexodus[8] (an apparent portmanteau of "Jewish" and "Exodus") but quickly renamed — and incorporated it as a tax exempt organization.[9] The Exodus Movement is an initiative of Red Sea Rising superpac.[7][10]

She told OK! magazine "When I got thrown into the political world, I knew the only way for me to both survive and thrive would be to create something meaningful. So I put my efforts into fighting for the Jewish people an against anti-Semitism.[11]

On fighting injustices in our country, Pipko told Fox News, "It's very easy to find problems going on right now in our society. No one's going to deny that things are upside down. I'm fighting anti-Semitism every single day. I still get swastikas sent to my direct messages once a week. I think when supporting America, in my eyes, it's more patriotic of me to stand against those things because I know America doesn't stand for that," she said.[12]

Pipko is a first generation American and the granddaughter of Soviet-born American artist Marc Klionsky.[13] She was a competitive figure skater until the age of fifteen when an ankle injury took her out of the sport.[9] Pipko is Jewish and attended Rabbi Arthur Schneier's Park East Day School.[14] On December 26, 2018, Pipko married Darren Centinello in West Palm Beach, Florida at the Mar-A-Lago Club.[7]
