THE woman whom director Roman Polanski was convicted of raping when she was 13 has released the cover of her upcoming memoir, showing her in a photo snapped by the director just three weeks before the assault.
The memoir by Samantha Geimer is due to be released in September, but made headlines on Thursday with a photo of the author as a chubby-cheeked adolescent.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Polanski took the picture at the girl's home in 1977 before coaxing her to pose topless. Three weeks later he took her to Jack Nicholson's house where he gave her sedatives and champagne before raping her, according to court testimony.
Polanski was convicted by a US court but fled to France before sentencing and has never returned to the US.
The publisher of the book, entitled, The Girl: A Life in the Shadow of Roman Polanski, said it was the first full account of the crime from Geimer's point of view.
"Samantha, as much as Polanski, has been a fugitive since the events of that night more than thirty years ago," the publisher said.
