Bridge
the racial divide is what Wanda did more than 40 years ago when she became the first "Colored" Stewardess for a
major airline. Always a pioneer, a chance taker, often following her heart into uncharted territories many young African
American women in the 60's were not yet allowed or were afraid to go. Wanda began her career evolution as a young model
in Chicago. At age 16, she attended modeling school, and won her first scholarship for dress designing. She has
continued to bridge the racial divide throughout her life's work in her quest to improve the image of African American women.
Wanda's commitment to teaching and training began in the mid '70's, when she taught modeling
at "John Robert Powers", and "Marnee Jones" modeling schools. This led her to open her own modeling
school and talent agency, franchised by "Screen Actors Guild" (SAG), and "American Federation of Television
and Radio Artists" (AFTRA). She studied and trained in "International Protocol and Business Etiquette the
Nation's Capitol, Washington, D. C.
