"A historical woman I’d love to know is Lady Bird Johnson. She has pushed and perserved in making America beautiful. Throughout her life, she helped to beautify our nation’s cities and highways and conserve natural resources. She cleaned up the countryside and planted the most beautiful flowers."
Carolyn Ramirez, Longview

"One of the most influential women in history is still living -- Oprah Winfrey. She is the epitome of a strong woman who overcame great obstacles. I love learning from Oprah’s shows ... she’s always teaching us how to improve our mind, body and spirit. What a treasure it would be to meet such an influential woman!"

"I’d like to meet Mother Teresa. She sacrificed so much of herself to reach out to the poorest people that Calcutta had. I personally have been to her orphanage in Calcutta, and saw the simple apartment where she spent her life. I also had the privilege of working in the orphanage one morning with a precious baby, who would have probably died on the streets had it not been for Mother Teresa’s ministry. I love people, but never in a million years could I have been able to sacrifice my life in the manner that she did!"

"If I had the opportunity to meet someone, it would be Beverly Johnson. She is a predominate figure in the hair industry. Her hair products allow beauticians like myself to achieve a better look, because of the better quality of hair she provides. She is also an inspiration, because she has achieved much in her 56 years of life Beverly Johnson is famous actress and was the first black woman to be on the cover of Vogue. I feel like meeting Beverly Johnson would forever impact my life in becoming a successful entrepreneur."

"I’d like to meet Jackie Kennedy Onassis because she was a gracious and elegant First Lady, a brave and courageous widow, a loving and nurturing mother, and a private and confident individual."
Teresa Crisler, Longview
