Miss Utah USA
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Miss Utah USA competition is the pageant who selects the representative for the state of Utah in the Miss USA pageant.
Utah has had moderate success at Miss USA, with their most consistent period being in the 1950s and 1960s. Their most recent finalist was Marin Poole in 2005.
In 2006 Red Curtain Productions took over the directorship of this pageant. The staff of Red Curtain are all former Miss Utah USAs and Miss Utah Teen USAs.
Three Miss Utah USAs are former Miss Utah Teen USAs who competed at Miss Teen USA. All three placed at Miss USA, which eclipsed their Teen performances.
