Famous Ohioan
Doris Day
Olivia picked Doris Day as her famous Ohioan.
Doris is one of my mom's favorite old time actresses.
Olivia did the outfit all by herself.
Below is Olivia's speech.
She makes a pretty brown haired Doris Day, don't you think?

My name is Doris Day.
I am from Cincinnati, Ohio.
I was born on April 3, 1924.
I am still living.
I am famous because I am an actress, singer, and animal rights activist.
Some things you may not know about me are
when I was about ready to preform the car I was in was struck by a train and crushed my right leg
and when I was 17 I added 2 years to my age so I could preform with big bands.

There were lots of famous Ohioans at the fair.  Here are a few.
Woody Hayes (Jillian McDougal). Thomas Edison (Morgan Mead), and
Doris Day (Olivia Arnold)
