Back in 1979 Miss Charleston, Jan Jenkins Herlong became Miss South Carolina. She's a Lowcountry South Carolina farm girl who went from bare feet to high heels to compete in the Miss America Pageant. Jane came from a meager background and was literally the farmer's daughter. Diagnosed at a young age with dyslexia, she was also told that she wasn't very pretty.
Well, bless her heart, 'cuz she ended up walking the runway in the Miss America pageant...looking ever-so beautiful in a hot pink one-piece!
Today Jane is a professional speaker, professional singer, recording artist {her singing is aired regularly on Blue Collar Sirius Xm Radio}, and author. My late BF Teresa Jane designed Jane's website and and gave me her book Bare Feet to High Heels.
I enjoyed Jane's book so much, I decided to buy her CD's for my roadtrip to Georgia!

ReplyDeleteOh, my! How I would love to win the CDs! And I'm gonna go out and buy her book.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Miss Janice
I would love to win!
ReplyDeleteBeing a South Carolina girl, I think I remember when she was Miss SC! My best friend and I didn't miss a Miss SC contest or Miss America when we were growing up!
I remember Jane's story. (Yes, I watch the Miss America Pagent.) She was, I think, one of the most natural beauties. (But I'll pass on the contest, as I have her book.)
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome lady! I would love to win her CDs!! :)
