<p>Grace Coddington, the creative director of <em>Vogue </em>who won hearts in the documentary <em>The September Issue </em>and stole the limelight from Anna Wintour, has sold her memoir to  Susan Kamil at Random House for a rumored $1.2 million. The book will reportedly be co-written with Michael Roberts, a <em>Vogue</em> writer. Ms. Coddington was represented by the literary agent Elyse Cheney.</p>
<p>The news is contrary to a recent assertion by <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/anna_memoir_sets_off_buzz_hejCubUzgPIzN0PSOwBQXO">Page Six</a> that Ms. Coddington had "put the project aside" and indicates that rumors that it was Ms. Wintour who was shopping a memoir were misplaced.</p>
<p>Random House had no comment, but Ms. Coddington<a href="http://www.observer.com/2010/daily-transom/grace-coddington-plans-memoir"> reportedly </a>began planning this book back in 2010. Back then, <a href="http://www.wwd.com/media-news/fashion-memopad/memo-pad-coddington-memoir-tv-camera-ready-3226526?src=rss/fashion-memopad/20100822"><em>WWD</em></a> reported that it would cover "her modeling days in Sixties London, the car accident that changed her  career path and her ascendancy through fashion’s ranks as a stylist and  editor at British Vogue and, later, its American counterpart."</p>
