Caroline Coon

She remains politically active, campaigning primarily for feminist causes, including the legalisation of prostitution.<br /><br /> In the 1970s, Coon became involved in the London punk scene, writing about the bands for Melody Maker and providing artwork for groups such as The Clash (whom she briefly managed) and The Police. In the "Punky Business" (punk rock) episode of the BBC comedy series The Goodies, Jane Asher plays a parody of Coon ("Caroline Kook"), the dream lover of Tim Brooke-Taylor's aspiring punk rock star.<br /><br /> Coon inspired the Robert Wyatt song "O Caroline", The Stranglers' "London Lady", and - according to Coon herself- Bob Dylan's "She Belongs To Me" (though this claim is highly questionable; most Dylan experts would argue that the song is actually about either Joan Baez, or Dylan's future wife Sara).
