Patti Dunn Simmons (born 1976) is a beauty queen from Lilburn, Georgia who has competed in the Miss USA pageant and has held a number of other pageantry titles.
Background
Dunn's first pageant title was won in 1992 when she became Miss Georgia Teenager and she later placed fourth runner-up in the Miss National Teenager pageant. In 1999 she won the Miss Georgia USA 2000 title and went on to represent Georgia in the Miss USA 2000 pageant. This was broadcast live from Branson, Missouri on February 2, 2000.[1] In the nationally televised event, Dunn became the first delegate from Georgia to make the first cut since 1993, and she went on to place seventh in the interview competition, third in swimsuit and fourth in evening gown, which put her into the top five in fifth place. She eventually placed fourth runner-up to Lynnette Cole of Tennessee.[2]
Dunn reigned until early October 2000, when she passed on her title to Miss Georgia USA 2001, Tiffany Fallon. During this period she made a number of appearances for charities and at schools.[3] She has also held the titles Mrs. Georgia International 2004 and Mrs. International 2004. Tammy McDonald took over Mrs. Simmons reign as Mrs. International 2004 after pictures surfaced that were in violation of the Mrs International contestant contract.[4]
Biography
A graduate of Brookwood High School, Dunn bought the "Winning Edge Model & Talent Agency" at age nineteen and coached pageant contestants and winners until she won the Miss Georgia USA title herself in 2000, at which time she sold the business to concentrate on her reign.[4] In 2003 she started another pageant coaching business called "The Crowning Touch.
In 2001 Dunn appeared on reality television show Temptation Island.[5] She married Chick-fil-A real estate developer Don Crocker in March that year [6] but the two later divorced. She later married Brennon Simmons, and the couple has one beautiful daughter with another on the way.[7]
