Vonda Kay Van Dyke (born May 19, 1943) was crowned the 1965 Miss America on September 13, 1964.
Earlier in the year, she had taken a break as a 21-year-old junior at Arizona State College at Flagstaff (as of 1966, "Northern Arizona University") to become Miss Arizona.
She is unique among pageant winners in that she was and still is the only Miss America who was also Miss Congeniality.
