Astrid Munoz (born 1974 in San Juan, Puerto Rico), is considered a top model among Supermodels.

Astrid received her primary and secondary education in San Juan. She was the first of three siblings born to her parents. Her father was a nuclear engineer and her mother a housewife. They both were very strict in their upbringing of Astrid. She enjoyed going to the beach and reading fashion magazines as a young girl. In 1988, when Astrid was 14 years old, she was offered an opportunity to model in Spain but, her mother objected.

After working in Europe for several years, Astrid relocated to New York, where she continues to appear on the covers of the most renowned fashion magazines and to work in many high fashion campaigns.
