Sailor Brinkley Cook

Sailor Lee Brinkley Cook (born July 2, 1998) is an American model and the daughter of supermodel Christie Brinkley. Billy Joel is her godfather.

Family and early life Cook's father is architect Peter Halsey Cook, who once modeled with her mother Christie Brinkley in 1979. They eventually reconnected and were married from 1996 until their 2008 divorce. Cook was conceived via in vitro fertilization and her mother was 44 at the time Cook was born.

Cook has two maternal half-siblings: Alexa Ray Joel (b. 1985) from Brinkley's marriage to Billy Joel, and Jack Paris Brinkley (b. 1995) from Brinkley's marriage to Richard Taubman.

Growing up, Cook wanted to become a comedian or a professional athlete. During elementary school, Cook participated in dance lessons but nerves got the better of her and she never performed in recitals. Sailor appeared alongside her mother, Christie Brinkley, and half-sister, Alexa Ray Joel, in the 2017 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

As part of her modelling career, Cook has been photographed for publications such as Vogue and Sports Illustrated. She walked the runway at New York Fashion Week in 2019, and has walked for brands such as Dolce and Gabbana.
