Grand Forks teacher recalls when Dick Clark picked her as ‘Miss Photogenic’
Meeting someone famous and admired can be an exciting, once-in-a-lifetime moment. But for Grand Forks teacher Sandy Espe, her teenage encounter with entertainment icon Dick Clark was life-changing. In 1980, Clark picked Espe’s photo as Miss Photogenic from the nine contestants in the Miss Buffalo (N.D.) contest. For Espe — who’d grown up with a front tooth discolored from a childhood mishap on the monkey bars and who wore glasses she describes as “Coke bottle lenses” — it was an amazing moment of affirmation.
