Mary J.'s Story

Started my college studies at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY. Missed Jersey and came back where I graduated from Montclair State University and received a BA in Communications. I graduated with several academic and civic honors including being selected the recipient of Who's Who in American Universities and Colleges. After graduation, in search of scholarship money for graduate school, I had the pleasure and experience of competing in the Miss America pageant. What an experience! I did well...traveled...and actually was voted Miss Congeniality by my peers! I guess my early socialization at Weehawken High School paid off! Traveled to New York City where I spent many years in the beauty industry. Became a Vice President of National Sales for a major cosmetic corporation where I traveled from LA to NYC every month....and loved it. Currently, I am affiliated with the Italian American TV Network overseeing all beauty, fashion and partnership development initiatives As a Media/Press correspondent,. I cover all high profile and Red Carpet events. Recently I was selected as a Gracie Judg...Expand for more
e for the Alliance for Women in Media for TV and Film, a judge for TV and Film for The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in California and accepted as a professional and sponsored member of the New York City Women in TV and Film. As a veteran in beauty and fashion, I am a lead media correspondent in covering Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York City in February and September. As a former Miss America title holder and Former Miss Congeniality, I take enormous pride in representing my State of New Jersey. In addition, I had been selected by the Miss America Board of Directors and appointed a Miss America State Judge since 2000. When I'm not working, I love the using my skills as a professional Sommelier. To me the marriage of fine wine and great cuisine is the perfect pairing. As a member of the Confrerie de la Chaine des Rotisseurs, a French food and wine society, I absolutely love the restaurants, nightlife, musical theater and Broadway of New York City. Love NYC and all it has to offers! I would welcome hearing from my 1969 classmates. Let's share our stories! Mary.
