    Testimonials “I could not have won Miss America without Shea! With nine tap dancers heading to Las Vegas this past January, I knew I needed a competitive edge. Shea's choreography challenged me and captured my personality to a 'T.' I had so much fun in my preparation for Miss America thanks to Shea's kick-butt attitude and no-nonsense approach to making people awesome!” - Mallory Hagan, Miss America 2013 “Working with Shea was one of the most awesome and yet tiring experiences ever! Never have I had a teacher who was able to pinpoint exactly what I needed to take my routine to the next level but also relate to me on a personal level. I appreciate the time she's spent with me because I know no one else could've been so beneficial to me!” -Alicia Clifton, Miss OK and Miss America 2013 2nd Runner-Up and Preliminary Talent winner “ Shea Sullivan’s choreography makes my costumes come alive. ” -Designer Stephen Yearick “ Working with Shea before Miss Connecticut and leading up to Miss America was probably the best decision I made in all my years competing. I had always struggled with something in regards to my talent, but thanks to Shea I feel like my dancing has been brought to a new level. She has challenged me in many ways, and in the process has made me a stronger dancer, and contestant. I've never felt so excited to perform a piece. Shea helped me to keep the integrity of a classical ballet variation, and at the same time to make it even more entertaining and relatable for the Miss America stage.

Maddox ___________________________ Thomas A. Tweed ___________________________ Timothy B. Tyson An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate Program in Religion in the Graduate School of Duke University 2014 Copyright by Mandy Ellene McMichael 2014 Abstract Christian engagement with beauty contests shifted dramatically between the initial Miss America pageant in 1921 and its 90 th anniversary in 2011. This dissertation explores how and why many Christians found the organization an institution worthy of partnership with the church. It examines three aspects of Christian involvement in the contest: the long history of beauty pageants, the persistent emphasis on individual physical attractiveness, and the idea of witness in southern evangelical culture. It argues that after 1965, at least two factors enabled the unlikely marriage of Christians and the Miss America Organization: the perceived threat of second-wave feminism and evangelicalism’s increasing desire to engage culture.
