WHEN DID YOU DECIDE TO GO INTO AIR TRAVEL?
I graduated from USC [the University of Southern California], and went to work for [the airline] United in 1951. I was active in my university sorority. One of my sorority sisters became a stewardess for United. She flew charters for the USC [American] football team. I got interested, and was accepted in 1951. So I went to
Cheyenne, Wyoming, for training.
