About
Chronicling over one hundred years of international performance history, these records document the progression of the Miss America pageant and the Eurovision Song Contest. By cataloguing every winner of the American pageant from its 1921 inception through to 2022, alongside the victors of the European musical stage since 1956, the collection highlights significant cultural shifts. It tracks the evolution of competition standards, such as the 2018 removal of the swimsuit segment to promote body positivity, and provides a longitudinal view of geographic patterns and the impact of these titles on individual careers.
