Fast Woman

Daredevil Helle Nice was a fast woman in every sense: in life, in love and in motor-racing.

Roaring through the 1920’s she danced her way to notoriety at the Casino de Paris, posed nude for Parisian photographers and risked her life many times in adventures as diverse as skiing, high wire acts, mountaineering and speed record attempts.

Her skill and courage brought her success; her brazen media-savvy brought her enemies – one in particular, in him she met her match.
