#1 Vonda Kay Van Dyke

Born: May 19, 1943 (age 78) Muskegon, Michigan
Education: Arizona State Univ. graduated from UCLA
Occupation: Author

Titles: Miss Phoenix 1964, Miss Arizona 1964, Miss America 1965
She is unique among pageant winners in that she was and still is the only Miss America who was also Miss Congeniality.

Pageants: In her senior year she entered a local America's Junior Miss pageant, where she surprised the judges and her fellow competitors by performing ventriloquism as her talent, which she later honed at the Phoenix amusement park, Legend City. She was named Arizona's Junior Miss for 1961, and traveled with "Kurley-Q" to Mobile, Alabama, for the national finals, where she placed in the top ten.
Her next major pageant was the 1962 Miss Phoenix competition. She later won the Miss Tempe crown in 1964, then Miss Maricopa County, then Miss Arizona, and finally Miss America, where she was the first contestant to use ventriloquism in the talent competition.

#2 Bess Myerson

Born: July 16, 1924, The Bronx, New York, U.S.

Bess Myerson was an American politician, model and television actress who became famous in 1945 as the first Miss America who was also Jewish. Myerson is the only Jewish woman to win the title to date. Her achievement, in the aftermath of the Holocaust, was seen as an affirmation of the Jewish place in American life.
