Lucy Clarkson (born July 6, 1982, Rotherham, South Yorkshire) is an English model. She is best known as being the fourth official Lara Croft model from the Tomb Raider series of video games, a role she took on in May 2000, at the age of 17, and held for two years until 2002 when Jill de Jong took over.[1]

As well as the Lara Croft work, she has done lingerie modelling for Vivienne Westwood. Lucy also has a semi famous sister, part time model Gemma Clarkson. She was educated at Wath-upon-Dearne Comprehensive school[2].

She began modelling after participating in an Elite Model Agency competition, where she was one of 12 winners out of 16,000 applicants. Until then she had no modelling experience.

Her boyfriend is stockbroker Michael Parnes, who is the nephew of ex-jewellery tycoon Gerald Ratner.[3]
